Defect
On vehicles converted to dual-mode rail-road operation, the shape of the steel brake air piping is improperly designed, allowing water to accumulate inside the piping on some units. Continued use causes rust to develop inside the piping. The rust may eventually perforate the piping, causing an air leak, and in the worst case, reducing braking force.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the brake air piping with the corrected part.
