Posted by Express Rider on Sun Oct 19 14:21:49 2014, in response to Re: Tuscarora Almanac - October 16, 1922 - The Book of First Runs, posted by randyo on Sun Oct 19 10:02:29 2014. Interesting! Thank you.But they never really were Hi-v's were they. They were originally designed as Low-V's, right, with, as you said, the control and braking systems adjusted (for lack of a better word) to work with the Lo-V system? I didn't know before that the control system and brakes had to be "stepped down" for low voltage operation. When you're given background at a Division meeting or fantrip, somegtimes it's done "on the fly," with no further details, whether that person knew them or not. Any idea what was done, to make AMRE & the control system compatible for Lo-V op. (I do know about the controller points being changed from Hi-V (12?) to Lo-V style) or is there a documnet you can refer me to? As I've said, though I don't have a technical background, this stuff fascinates me. |
