-tain.
Electric Traction Company:
The total length of single trarway line is
144 miles and it is laid over 94 miles of route.
The gauge of the track is 3' 6" with rails
of the Girder type weighing 86 lbs. per lineal yard.
The cars are run on the overhead trolley
system, the rails acting as an uninsulated return.
The trolley wire is divided into half mile
sections by means of section insulators, and at each of these
points the main feeder cables are tapped for current.
The pressure at the trolley wire is 500
volts.
The Generating Station situated beside the Bowrington Canal, is as nearly as possibly in the centre of the
system.
The Engine room contains two Dick-Kerr continuous current, direct connected generators of the Multipo- lar type, compound wound, giving a potential of 550 Volts and running at 100 revolutions a minute. They are designed to run
either separately or in parallel.
