1. A method for reducing false train stops, said method comprising: receiving, at a processing unit, inputs from a hot box detection system; generating, using the processing unit, a bearing profile for each bearing passing the hot box detection system, wherein each bearing profile includes a plurality of temperature readings of the bearing associated with the bearing profile; assigning, using the processing unit, a profile classification to each bearing profile; determining a quantity of bearing profiles assigned to each profile classification; and generating a maintenance alert if the quantity of bearing profiles assigned to any individual profile classification exceeds a configurable count threshold.
