All motors are ven-tilated by a blower direct-connected tothe dynamotor in the cab of the locomo-tive. The gear reduction is 64/17. Thecontrol equipment is Sprague GeneralElectric Type M, arranged for operationfrom either end of the cab. There are10 steps with the motors in series and 7steps in series-parallel. Control currentfor operating the contractors, lightingand other auxiliary circuits is furnishedby a Type CDM-19, 1,500/600-volt dy-namotor. A multivane fan carried on anextension of the shaft furnishes air forventilating the motors. The current collector is a sliding panto-graph, similar to that being installed on. <?\
