The 10,000-volt, 15-cycle system has been adopted. Allgemeine has furnished an express locomotive of the Atlantic type and 4-4-2class. One 1000-h. p. motor, mounted in the center of the locomotive, utiHzesvertical driving rods from its crank shafts, and a crank circle of inches. Thecrank shaft is side-rod connected to 2 pairs of 63-inch drivers. Rigid driver wheelbase is 9 feet 10 inches, and total wheel base is 19 feet 8 inches. Weight is 77tons. See Figure Fig. 156.—Prussian State Railway. A. E. G. Locomotive at Oranienburg, 1906. Allgemeine freight locomotive is of the 0-4-4-0 class, with one 800-h. p. motor,crank-connected at 45 degrees to a crankshaft located across the middle of the loco-motive. The crank circle diameter is inches. The crank shaft is side-rodconnected to 4 pairs of 41-inch drivers. Driver wheel base, not rigid, is 15 feet9 inches, and the total weight is about 64 tons.
