Page 27 - The three-phase system has the advantage that in running downhill the speed cannot exceed a certain limit, whilst recuperation of energy is possible. With the single-phase system, the weight of the motors would be at least doubled, resulting in a greater expenditure of energy, more especially as we shall be obliged always to use two locomotives to each train. The advantages of wider speed adjustment in running, and better efficiency in starting, are not of importance, since the grades are long and...
