Single Rail. data calculated from the investigations on a single rail and asingle trolley are graphically represented in Figs. 154, 155, 156,and 157. These curves are similar to those of the preceding 460 ELECTRIC RAILWAY TEST COMMISSION tests. Fig. 154 shows the pressure drop per mile, Fig. 155 showsthe power losses per mile, Fig. 156 shows the ratios of the the pressure drop, and Fig. 157 shows the power No. 51. Single Rail Alone.—The results of theinvestigations on a single rail alone are shown in Figs. 158, 159,160, and 161. These curves have been constructed in the samegeneral manner as those showing the results of the precedingtests. Fig. 158 shows the pressur
