ATTENTION: Wabtec Global Services highly recommends that students attend our Locomotive Air Brake Training class before attending an EPIC Air Brake Training class. For a limited time, we will extend a $100 discount for both classes if you register for Locomotive Air Brakes and EPIC Air Brake Training at the same time. Register now to take both classes for a total of $800 instead of spending $500 for each individual class ($1000 total).
Designed to teach all aspects of EPIC locomotive air brake
equipment, this course details the operating principles of EPIC control
portion operation as well as the functions of each component. The class
will include demonstrations using an EPIC Locomotive Air Brake Simulator
and will detail air brake equipment setup and integration as well as
equipment testing, maintenance procedures and the use of Diagnostics
Maintenance Terminal Software/Remote Session to aid in troubleshooting.
The session also includes a tour of the WABCO Locomotive Products
production facility. |
