An apparatus for providing relative spin speed traction control on a railway vehicle. Such apparatus includes a wheel spin detection device connected to receive a plurality of input signals; one of such input signals being an externally generated axle rate signal which represents an acceleration/deceleration rate of a particular wheel/axle set being monitored with respect to wheel slippage. This device generates a spin speed selection output signal and a respective axle's wheel spin detection signal. A wheel spin correction device connected to receive as input signals; a power/brake signal which represents when such vehicle is either in a braking mode or not, a spin speed selection output signal and the respective axle's wheel spin detection signal. This device determines the appropriate output force command signal selected from remove, hold and apply and also generates an output signal indicating a spin correction being in progress or not in progress for a respective axle. A wheel spin axle force command signal generating unit connected to receive a power/brake signal, an output force command signal and a signal indicative of spin correction, for generating a re-application jerk limiting output signal and communicating this signal to respective truck 1 and truck 2 propulsion control units. A speed normalization unit connected to receive raw axle speed signals, a power/brake signal, axle rate signals and an output signal representative of car level spin for generating an output signal representative of normalized axle speed.
