A new Periodic Transaction Report filed under the STOCK Act shows that a dependent child of Rep. April McClain Delaney sold shares of Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation (NYSE: WAB) on August 25, 2026. The transaction, valued between $100,001 and $250,000, marks the latest in a series of WAB sales tied to the Maryland Democrat’s household this year.
The filing does not disclose the exact number of shares sold or the price at which the transaction occurred, only that it falls within the disclosed dollar range required by law. Members of Congress and their immediate family, including dependent children, are required to report such trades within 45 days under the STOCK Act, regardless of who manages the underlying brokerage account.
An Insider Sale in the Same Window
What makes this filing notable is its proximity to activity inside Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies itself. Company insider Mendonca Rogerio sold approximately $864,427 worth of WAB stock on August 21, 2026, just four days before the McClain Delaney family’s reported transaction. Both sales occurred within the same 30-day window, a timing overlap that has become a recurring pattern in this stock’s recent trading history.
There is no indication in the public record that the two transactions are connected, and STOCK Act disclosures do not require members of Congress to explain their trading rationale. The filing is a legal disclosure obligation, not an allegation of coordination or wrongdoing. Still, when a corporate insider sale and a congressional family sale land close together on the calendar, it is the kind of overlap that tends to draw attention from those tracking WAB’s ownership activity.
This is not the first time the McClain Delaney household has appeared in WAB-related filings. As covered in our earlier report on the family’s repeated WAB sales, the dependent child’s account has shown a pattern of periodic divestment from the stock over recent months. The August 25 sale continues that trend, with the disclosed value range suggesting a similar scale to prior transactions.
Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies, known widely by its Wabtec brand, manufactures locomotives and rail equipment, and its stock has drawn interest from both institutional and insider watchers this year. For now, the public record shows two separate sales, one from a company insider and one from a lawmaker’s dependent, landing within the same short window in late August 2026. Future filings, if any, will show whether this pattern continues into the fall reporting period.
