In the earlier cars the air compressor and the blowerfor cooling motors, transformers and preventive coilswere driven from the same motors. In the new carsthe drives are separate. The blower, which has a ca- ing effect of wind blowing across the track, connect thetwo messengers. The contact wire is hung from thesecondary messenger by means of bronze clamps. The messenger wire is supported on insulators fromoverhead structures of several types, depending uponthe characteristics of the respective parts of the , bracket, or special lattice-truss cross.

These interlock circuits do not appear in thesimplified general wiring diagram printed below. All ofthe control apparatus is placed around the edge of thecar for case of inspection and maintenance.
