THE ELECTRIFICATION OF THE CZECHOSLOVAK STATE RAILWAYS IN STEP WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF ELECTRIC TRAINS

DIE ELEKTRIFIZIERUNG DER TSCHECHOSLOWAKISCHEN EISENBAHNEN IM ZUGE DER ENTWICKLUNGSTENDENZEN ELEKTRISCHER BAHNEN

The first lines of the CSD network were electrified with 3000 V d.c. Around 1960, it was decided to adopt 25kV, 50 Hz single-phase a.c. Substations, overhead systems and motive power units of both systems are described. To solve the problems resulting from two kinds of current systems in one national railway network CSD decided to develop dual-system motive power units. In conclusion, aspects of energy economy are discussed.
