LIGHTING A RAILROAD TRAIN'
It is always a source of won
der where the passenger train,
speeding over the rails at 4tlXty
miles >n hour, secures the electri
city for its lighting plant. And,
If ycu explain that the train makes
its own current as U rung along,
1» is equally mystifying where it
gets its ,supply when the train is
Btanding still, with the engine cut
off.
Ah electric lighting plant for a
modern passenger train consists of
a small Curtis turbine generator,
driven by steam direct from the
locomotive boiler, or geared to a
truck axle of one of (the coaches.
Of course, a small storage battery
is necessary in either case, as the
train would be in darkness when
Hot running or when, the en
gine w i switching. This storage
battery is located ia the baggage
cor, and takes ijp very little room.
The coacbeg are wired just the
same as a house.
Electricity is used for driving
fans, a* well ,08 for lighting, and
on some of the flseist trains elec
tric cooking ranges axe installed in
the dining cars.
