Abstract

A train control device (20) to be installed on a train (10) includes an acquisition unit (21) that obtains first pulses from a velocity sensor (31) for detecting the first pulses generated on a first axle of the train (10) and obtains second pulses from a velocity sensor (32) for detecting the second pulses generated on a second axle of the train (10), a storage unit (22) that stores the first pulses and the second pulses, and a control unit (23) that determines occurrence or non-occurrence of a slip or a slide of the train (10) based on a pulse ratio, where the pulse ratio is a ratio between a number of first pulses detected during a time period in which the train (10) traveled a given distance among the first pulses, and a number of second pulses detected during a time period in which the train (10) traveled the given distance among the second pulses.
