Fig. 4—Proposed Freight and Passenger Locomotive forPrussian-Hessian State Railways geared types. In discussing coupling-rod transmission for elec-tric locomotives, Dr. Gleichmann points out their principal ad-vantages as follows: The motor can be entirely removed fromthe space between the wheels and hence as size limitations arepractically abolished the number of motor units can be re-duced; increased tractive effort secured by coupling up axles Motor
