A disc brake is a type of brake that uses the calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc (sometimes called a [brake] rotor) [1] to create friction. [2] There are two basic types of brake pad friction mechanisms: abrasive friction and adherent [ further explanation needed ] friction. [ 3 ]
Caliper is the American spelling, while calliper (double "L") is the British spelling. A single tool might be referred to as a caliper or as calipers — a plural only (plurale tantum) form, like scissors or glasses. Colloquially, the phrase "pair of verniers" or just "vernier" might refer to a vernier caliper.
If the dynamic brakes had been properly engaged as intended, the locomotive would have used the motors against the momentum of the train as generators, causing it to slow down. Instead, the train began to accelerate. Therefore, the only functioning brake was the air brakes on the locomotive, and this was not enough to counteract its power. [1]

As train loads, gradients and speeds increased, braking became a more significant problem. In the late 19th century, significantly better continuous brakes started to appear. The earliest type of continuous brake was the chain brake [19] which used a chain, running the length of the train, to operate brakes on all vehicles simultaneously.
