Development and current milestone of train braking system based on failure phenomenon and accident case

Abstract Efficient and safe transportation needs are coveted by every human being. One mode of transportation that has many enthusiasts, especially in the land sector, is the train. The development of trains from time to time has a final destination to create a safe and comfortable mode of transportation from failure and accidents. This article discusses the development of braking systems, braking system failures, financial losses that occur, the use of advanced materials in braking systems, and the manufacturing process. This article is expected to be a reference in supporting the realization of rail as a public transportation on land with a low accident and failure level.
