Abstract :
Improvements have been made in practically every part of pantograph trolleys used for current collection on electric railways. As a result of these many improvements the pantograph of most recent design fulfills its important function in a highly satisfactory manner. Designs now are available for collecting currents of any magnitude found on either a-c or d-c roads at any speed up to 100 mph.
