Electric power vs steam power on New York Central line
New York Dec 6 The successful test of the first electric locomotive for the main line of the New York Central Railroad advances the day when trunk line passenger service may run on electrical traction. The test locomotive pulled its load with rapid acceleration. If electric traction proves reliable on dense routes, other railways such as the Pennsylvania and New Haven may electrify, adopting the Sprague system of multiple control and distributing power more evenly across trains.
