I have no idea how much actual electronics are involved to know if they have features that would identify if the cart's brakes are overheating
I haven't read too much into this incident tbh, but I seem to remember this being a failed gearbox and not a brake issue. The end result can be the same, the wheels lock and drag along the steel rail, heating the wheels and anything nearby. Working in passenger rail I can tell you this will happen very fast.
