Locotrol

A mid-train locomotive controlled remotely through Locotrol from the lead locomotive, which means no crew is needed on this locomotive.

Locotrol is a product of Wabtec Corporation that permits railway locomotives to be distributed throughout the length of a train (distributed power). It is installed on more than 17,000 locomotives around the world, sending signals from the lead locomotive and via radio to the remote control locomotives.[1][2]
