Answer: Class 3 Air Brake Test
Feedback:
An Application and Release Air Brake Test can be performed if the train has been off air for 24 hours or less, and the air from the test plant is the same as the locomotive regulating valve setting (90 psi). Note: On the BNSF, all yard test plants use a pressure of 90 psi for air brake tests.
