Great information. Chris….I really would like to understand how, for example, RDC air brakes work. The idea of brake pipes vs lines etc is just so confusing. Seeing how this works live, vs diagrams helps. Any suggestions on how a dummy like me can master these counterintuitive concepts?
When I do the SCT video of on the car …. I’ll add and RDC in the mix and explain what does what and where the air goes … maybe a longer video but I’ll show how the control valve and J relay valve and the others work
Thanks. I grew up, literally 3 miles from the Budd Red Lion plant. An uncle worked there as a welder. As a kid we would drive by the plant and see the RDCs ready for delivery! The plant (and my house) was in farmland in the 50 and 60’s. The Budd plant was HUGE, and even had an fair sized airport on it. Anyway, I can’t get enough of your videos on these great units. Rode them when I was a commuter student at Temple University in Philadelphia.
This is really cool Chris! As someone with an mechanical engineering background stuff like this is really fascinating. Super informative.
Thanks for the vids Chris love the technical side of things l!
NEW SUB!
