This is beyond my era, but also when I troubleshooted. Meaning that Helper link has really evolved. The weather is that. The tunnel type bridge, is at MP 49 near where, I laid my late Labs to rest Bear in 2011 and Cooper in 2014. This 5:00 minutes into the video. This is how harsh I have said, and how the conditions change up here. Manned helpers and at the head end, Palmer Divide, you could experience so many weather changes. Helper link is that , and you key in a radio signal code and the pin lifts and you separate from the train without stopping. Yes “YOU” the helper will go into emergency, but reset an on your way. The grey box is that new helper link. I have worked on a primitive version of this. Code on the radio was 62-62 transmit. beep beep beep and sever from the train. The brake pipe was continuous for the helper via radio, so it mocked the reductions etc. That can be another whole writing. Enjoy I take no credit in this video.
