Abstract
Strategy of development of JSC Russian Railways and the growth in commuter passenger traffic put forward new technical requirements for electric trains. In conformity with those requirements Siemens has engineered a model of commuter electric train «Lastochka» (Swallow) with the outlook for further localization of its manufacturing in Russia. Motor rolling stock received modern braking system which is highly efficient and engineered for velocity up to 160 km / h. The article describes in details operation and design features of braking devices and its control units.
