False readings due to wheel skid are eliminated by this use of an independent wheel running directly on the track. 

The handheld data logging unit will immedeately display the test result and will indicate whether the locomotive passed or failed.

The information in the handheld init can then be downloaded and stored on a computer from where a certificate with the locomotive number, testing date, stopping distance, locomotive speed and deceleration can be printed.
