Abstract
High sustained available and controllable continuous output is considered one of the outstanding characteristics of locomotives recently designed for the Pennsylvania Railroad. This high output has been made possible by the use of motors of improved design together with transformers having suitably selected taps. Important features of these locomotives are treated in this article.
