A trailer electronic braking system for a road train includes a tractor and a plurality of trailers. The braking system includes a braking ECU on at least one trailer and an ABS system on a further trailer. A communication interface is provided so that the braking ECU on a first trailer and the ABS control unit on a second trailer are able to communicate with one another. In use, the braking ECU on the first trailer receives an input from a respective sensor on the first trailer adapted to detect lateral acceleration anchor wheel speed. In the event that the sensor detects lateral acceleration anchor a wheel speed indicative of a loss of stability, the sensor generates a signal for actuating stability control, which signal is passed via the communication interface to the ABS control unit on the other trailer, so that the other trailer can actuate the brakes on that trailer.
