That’s probably it then. I wouldn’t be surprised to find they use the emergency brake more during testing than in the following century of normal operation.
It would be unfortunate if emergency stops resulted in flats. I've been on a TTC streetcar during an emergency stop, it seems like it isn't an infrequent thing in Toronto.
