The data previouslyobtained from Plates IV. and V. was also used, andthe energy consumption curves shown in Figures E7,28, 29 and 30 were plotted. An examination of these energy consuiiptioncurves, indicates that for each of the threemotors, there is one gear ratio and one rate ofacceleration which requires the least nvimber ofkilowatt-hours per ton-mile. For motor GE-225-Bin express service, the minimum energy consumptionis kilowatt-hours per ton-mile and occurswhen the gear ratio is and the accelerationis miles per hour per second. In local servicethe same motor consumes kilowatt-hours per 58 Motor Equipment. ton-mile when the gear ratio is
