      <title>LONDON UNDERGROUND PROTOTYPE TUBE TRAINS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/277762</link>
      <description><![CDATA[As part of the overall programme for the renewal of the Central Line, London Underground is purchasing three prototype trains.  These trains incorporate many new features and will form the basis for the next generation of tube rolling stock.  The trains are being bought on a main contractor basis and a complete specification was produced. The trains were ordered in May 1984 and are due for delivery this year.  The major technical innovations of the trains are the use of large aluminium extrusions, solid state traction control, and materials with an improved fire performance.]]></description>

      <title>ELECTRIC BRAKING PERFORMANCE OF MULTIPLE UNIT TRAINS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/276121</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Operation of a transit system is always a compromise between the two conflicting requirements of high average speeds, which not only improve the acceptability of rail travel to passengers, but also reduce the number of cars needed to run the service, and low "energy consumption" and "maximum demand", to reduce the operating electricity  costs. Efficient use of regenerative braking can further these aims, by raising the voltage at the train power pick up for the former and by the use of regenerative energy return for the latter.  Electric braking also allows higher deceleration rates with more controllability but without increased brake maintenance.  There are two modes of electric braking, rheostatic and regenerative.  The optimum choice of electric braking for a particular system depends upon the relative importance to the operator of a number of factors as well as local circumstances.  This paper highlights some of the conflicting factors and illustrates their inter-relationships.]]></description>
