Talk:Railway electrification system
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Czech Republic both systems 3000V DC and 25kV AC are used, north part of Czech republic use 3kV DC, south part use 25kV AC. it was let say rule: red machine - 25kV AC, Green machine 3kV DS, Blue machine for both (switchable)
[edit] A good article, but....
I do not see any lists of external references. This may be a problem for people like myself, who are trying to research this topic and need some solid source material. Piercetp 03:30, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
- (sighing) You need something done around here you have to do it yourself! I found a decent link to add. Piercetp 05:07, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
This article is about railway electrification. The sections on multisystem locomotives and battery electric rail vehicles are all very interesting, but not relevant to this page. I propose that they be deleted from this article and placed on another page (or placed on new pages of their own). --ALECTRIC451 23:51, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- IMHO this article should be about the technical stuff / diffrent systems. In places it appears to duplciate the work of other article such as List of current systems for electric rail traction, Railway electrification in Great Britain, Railroad electrification in the United States, Third rail and Overhead lines Pickle 16:09, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

- ALECTRIC451 has moved those sections to Railway electric traction Pickle 14:29, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Photo used in article
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:US-NortheastCatenary.jpg This photo really is not that visable. Can someone find a better one to use? Thanks... Piercetp 01:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- OK then I see someone replaced it. Thanks. Piercetp 20:31, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Merge from Railway electric traction
It seems to me that everything in railway electric traction duplicates either this article on electric locomotive. Mangoe 20:09, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
- Railway electric traction is about the traction units that operate on a railway electrification system. A railway electrification system is the infrastructure that allow electric traction to operate. IMHO, they are quite different, and both merit separate articles. Any cross-over of content between the two should be avoided. ALECTRIC451 21:46, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

- A further point, an electric locomotive is a subset of railway electric traction, another being electric multiple units. The article railway electric traction is meant to pull together all the different forms of railway traction that uses electricity as the power source for propulsion.

- If any merging is needed then it should be between this article and Traction power network ALECTRIC451 23:55, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

- Yes, all the above should be here. Whence the electricity comes into the third rail (or catenary) and whither it goes, all belong in the various national sections of this article, or in two new worldwide technical sections. Jim.henderson 02:50, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
