Derailment control system for railway vehicles that, in addition to detecting and issuing a warning of said derailment, provides control over the brake of the derailed vehicle or vehicles and provides additional emergency braking and/or a warning to the driver's cab, said system having a main unit ( 1 ) to which are joined: an inertia sensor or detector ( 8 ) designed to detect derailments, an indicator ( 9 ) or device responsible for indicating that the derailment control system has been triggered and for keeping the system activated, a stopcock ( 10 ) that deactivates the derailment control, and a bottom connection point ( 11 ) for testing that makes it possible to simulate a triggering of the system via a threaded eyebolt, facilitating verification of proper operation both during bench testing and when the system is installed on the vehicle ( 7 ), and a device ( 39 ) situated at the exhaust outlet through which the automatic brake pipe (ABP)( 5 ) is vented when said derailment is detected.
