Why do train engineers hit the wheels/brakes with a metal rod? 723 viewsJanuary 3, 2024 Question100.55K December 23, 2020 0 Comments I feel like every time there’s a train in a movie, they show an engineer walking along the cars hitting each car’s undercarriage with a rod or hammer. I have also seen this in documentaries, so it’s not just Hollywood. What is the reason for this?
