When trains were crew operated, was it the guard, the driver or both who received the alarm? Presumably the final decision to stop the train or not would rest with the driver, but presumably the guard would offer advice? With guards, the emergency stop handle was directly linked to the brake pipe. see THIS LURS ARTICLEThanks for that, it's very well written article that makes interesting reading. |

I agree entirely with Seth and 100andThirty
If the PEA goes at anytime, other than within the station count up markers or with a loss of pilot light, then BOD it immediately and continue until fully berthed at the next station.
(If it is a PEA alarm symptom as part of another defect, then either the BOD won't overide the defect and give you movement, or it will and you have got the train moving, problem solved, defect better dealt with at next station).
