MOTOR AND PINION that it may be fed with 1000 volts alternating current or 500volts direct current. The rotor has a commutator and foursliding contact rings, it being a two-phase armature when run-ning with alternating current. The line will be equipped with motor cars, each having twoof these motors, of an aggregate rated horse-power of series-parallel control will be used for direct-current work,and the single-cascade control for alternating-current running. The trains to be hauled will weigh 35 tons and run at a maxi-mum speed of 30 The line has several very heavy andlong grades up to 5 per cent. The transmission voltage dis-tribution is 10,000 volts, three-phase. This railway represents a novel application of the Ganzsystem, as it is a combination of alternating current and directcurrent that will enable the interurban road to enter the cities,passing over the street railway lines. It is expected that therailway company will soon extend i
