The Traction of Freight Trains at Different Speeds
The problem of railroad traction is to determine what a given tractive power can accomplish in overcoming a number of resistances, the principal of which is grade. The "ruling grade" is usually the maximum grade on a tangent, and the increase in resistance which would be introduced by curves on the ruling grade is, in the present day, done away with by equating or "slackening grade" throughout the length of the curve, with the purpose of producing a perfectly uniform resistance over tangents and curves alike.
