This result shows that the limiting train consumption per ton-mile for any given values of acceleration and deceleration is, underthe assumed conditions, the same for any length of run. Q, theduration of stops, may usually be taken as 20 seconds. The highestattainable schedule speeds, and the corresponding crest values, havebeen calculated, by means of the above formulae, for runs of 0*5, 1, 2.

(folding table). As an instructive instance of the application of these principles,let us consider the case of a 1-mile run from start to stop, letus consider a case where M = IO. Let us first study this run forschedule speeds of 12, 18, and 24 ml ph. The speed-time diagramscorresponding to these three schedule speeds, for A = IO and B = 1*5,are readily worked out from the formulae and methods alreadydescribed, and are plotted in Fig. 31. 58 ELECTRIC TRAINS Assuming 100 per cent, efficiency for the electrical equipment andnegligible train-friction, the input required will be exclusively thatcorresponding in each case to the momentum at the crest
