I guess when you "lock the brakes down" on a long train you are basically sliding metal on metal as the locked wheels skid down the track. Is it more effective though to have a controlled application of the brakes where the wheels do not lock (is this even possible in an emergency or are you required to hit the emergency stop)? When a lock up does occur, does it mean that all of the wheel sets on the train will experience some degree of damage due to flat spots?
