a) The electricity is constantly being converted into an equal output, most of which is kinetic energy, there is some waste sound and heat (friction).
b) As it breaks, the train is using kinetic energy in the breaks to press against the wheels and produce heat and light energy, as it glows red-hot. The friction caused between th breaks and the wheels and the tracks and the wheels slow it down to a stop, with some excess sound energy.
