of course does not take account of the economical cost of distribution of the fuel to locomotives (far larger and complicate, and with more intermediate costs I think, than that of electric energy), and the general higher mantainance costs (not to speak of lower life) of diesel power plants. And not even mentioning all the undeniable power/ton, acceleration, comfort, highest speed, etc. advantages of el. locos: don't you think those should have a role in evaluating the operative benefits of a transport system? Of course, I'm speaking of locomotives and rail systems of supposedly same evolution, electronics apparatus etc. If one has studied a little bit of machines will consider obvious the advantages of electric engines and transmission over diesel ones (I don't even want to consider steam ones...), once you've balanced the initial cost of electrification. Of course, if for inner economical politics reasons US pay fuel 50% less than European countries (but have to invade Kuwait and Iraq in exchange), this cannot mean that diesel engines ARE more economically efficient everywhere. You'd also pay 50% less the electric energy to distribute to el. locos. Let me know and good work!!! --
602:
course the electrification cost was not mentioned: I thought it was obvious that the initial cost has been alreayd absorbed in countries using it. However, the fact that almost all NEW railways are electrified should make you think. I think the matter is both of culture and state-of-the-art in techonology: if you ALREADY HAVE electrification, el. locos are what you need. If you don't have it, and don't want to spend for infrastructure, of course DE locos are a solution. Given this, even if (per absurd) operative costs were the same, would you prefer to carry your goods home at 200km/h with an el. loco or at 120 with a DE? --
1996:. In starting the train and at low speeds, the motors and the generator operate at low voltage but high current. High current translates into high torque. As the train accelerates, the operating current decreases, but the voltage increases. In this way, the locomotive is steadily shifting gears, by infinitesimal increments. There may be a certain speed where the motors are switched from series to parallel, making higher voltage at lower current available to the individual motors. Still, the basic shifting of gears occurs by a silent change in the voltage being generated. 126:
operation. Cleanliness - if steam locomotives were still operating in the developed world, imagine the environmental issues. Water supply issues - the steam locomotive's thirst was a problem (especially in desert areas, e.g. American West). Antiquity of the existing steam locomotive fleet - US and Europe steam fleets were mostly pre-1945. And the perceived modernity of new forms of traction - a desire not to seem backward is behind most dieselisation in poorer countries.
31: 1188: 631:. I agree that the original version was a little too US-biased, but within that context, it was accurate. The solution therefore was to put in material about other parts of the world (remembering that the situation in Europe is likely not like that in China). And if you had done that, most likely even unsourced changes would have gone unchallenged (at least by me) if they weren't completely off the wall. 135:
locomotive can take 8-10 hours to prepare from cold. Many standard gauge steam locos were kept in full or partial steam overnight to overcome this, which of course meant that the locos weren't available for maintenance and were more costly in terms of fuel and the need for nightwatchmen to ensure safety.
2003:
The traditional electric locomotive has quite a different control system because it must work from a (more or less) constant voltage source, relying more on resistors to limit the motor voltage. With more electronic control involved, it is possible that the electric locomotive and the diesel-electric
1999:
This description is fairly complete for older locomotive designs, as when I worked in a locomotive factory in 1971-1974. Now there may be computerized controls and AC induction motors for traction, but the same idea will still hold: high current for high torque at low speeds, higher voltage but lower

I was glad to see an animated picture on this page to explain the wheel linkages, but it would also be nice to have an image explaining the relationship between the burner and the boiler, as it is not at all clear from photos of the locomotives how heat is transferred to the whole of the boiler area.
1137:
I'm wondering if the two photos at the head of the article should be replaced. I having an IC loco and a steam loco next to the opening paragraph. However both of the current photos have issues. The Alco photo has a MoW truck obscuring part of the loco and the caption has redlinks. The GWR Grange has

I agree. In fact the text used to strongly imply that steam ended because the coal ran out, which is clearly not the case. Coal is still plentiful in Europe, North America and China, which hasn't stopped the move to internal combustion and electric traction. Indeed, the end of steam was the (partial)

This one sentence section contain little useful information and no links or refrence, so in my opinion is written at discretion. If there is no objection, I'll remove or merge it with other sections. Also, I suppose special-purpose locomotive should be included in section: Classification by use. So
2032:
I note with your last point: it depends on the electric locomotive. A DC locomotive traditionally worked as you describe, and so probably did the AC synchronous-motored version (the ones capable of only a certain set of fixed speeds). The situation with an AC tap-changer locomotive (like a GG1) or

And German, French, Italian, Swiss, countries where rail techonology is by far superior, are a bunch of idiots, then? Don't know exactly the US situation, but you cannot advocate a particular situation to support a thesis. If what you say was true, then, at least for goods transit, European railways

What gets me is saying that "the first successful locomotives" were built by Richard Trevithick, as if to say there were locomotives that preceded his. But to my knowledge he invented the first locomotive period. This downplaying of the genius of one of the Cornish heroes is disgusting, and I demand

I'm disappointed with the quality of the photography in this article in general. I think that I'd like images that show the differences more clearly, generally 3/4s or builder's shots where the mechanism is better shown (and a panto-up photo for the eletric loco shot). It would be nice for the lead
1077:
I'm not to sure about diesel-electric being the most common one. In europe all-electric locomotives rule the main lines (along with EMU). And gas-turbine-electric is not fuel-efficient enough to compete with diesel engines when weight not is an issue. The only modern one I heard of is the jettrain.
818:
do anything to improve the statement of the article as regard to the European experience, and that (2) you keep trying to suppress expression of the American experience in this, and then go on to imply that the rest of the world is more like Europe than like North America. Go ahead and say what you
796:
I've looked at the stats we have in Knowledge (XXG) (which do not mention miles of electrification) and one can see readily that the USA far outranks anyone else in ton-miles of freight, and that the density of lines in the heart of Western Europe is quite anomalous. Europe may be "cooler" or "more

It looks like the user didn't really read and understand what was written. I can understand that the proximity of the words "EMD GP-50 diesel-electric locomotive" might be misread as General Electric, but the word "General" doesn't appear in the caption. The original caption is correct. It is a

The 'see also' entries Articulated locomotive, Autorail, Bank engine, Duplex locomotive, Air brake, Railway brakes, Regenerative (dynamic) brakes, Vacuum brake - seem to either fall into the steam loco specific area or could be 'see also's on each of the pages for the different classes of loco (eg

IMHO, phrases like these show the deep bias of US users, and mostly their lack of openmindness. It seems that US people cannot convince themselves that things in Europe can be far more advanced, sometimes. They cannot believe that they are currently an underdeveloped country as for railways. Until

This article is more or less totally lacking in references. It was probably not so bad when the statements were mostly "common knowledge", but now we have someone claiming that "However the quality of the electricity produced during braking is usually too poor to be of much importance." We need a
134:
Morven, I'd like to see that article: it would be a great addition. The labor-intensive nature of steam was a major reason for the switch to diesel. Another is the instant availability of diesel locomotives. You can switch one on and its ready to haul a train essentially immediately. A large steam

What ever happened to the above proposals? It would seem logical to have a short article 'Locomotive' - any vehicle which provides 'locomotion' containing links to a new article 'Railway locomotive' (which would contain the bulk of this article), 'Road locomotive', 'Traction engine' Tractors etc.

The claim that "almost all NEW railways are electrified" cries out for sourcing; my plausibility alarms go off immediately. Surely statistics should be obtainable for this, but when I look around in Google for new line construction I see projects in Central Asia which either are not identified as

I can agree with you that my reasoning was superficial; I'm not an expert in such a depth of the field to cite precise technical data. But, however, I feel it's far more reasonable than the previous thesis' one, which simply based on: "in the US is in this way, so it must be such everywhere". Of

It may be "boring" but its an essential part of building an encyclopedia rather than just another MySpace.com. You may believe this is an "obvious" conclusion but it clearly isn't the case that every railway system believes electrification is the best option in all cases. I don't agree with your

or anything at that level. Editors pop up with a particular specialist interest, maybe write a good narrow-scope article on it, but they squeeze it into the top-level article as well. As a result, broad-scope articles inevitably seem to lose structure and gain paragraphs of cruft. After a while
138:
In the UK at least, the passage of the Clean Air Act in the early 1950's (I think) was a major spur to the abandonment of steam. The infamous London smogs of the 1930's and 40's were mainly caused by the emissions from coal fires in private homes, but steam locomotives also contributed and were
1892:
OK, my turn to be bold! I've deleted this section as I think it is too general to be helpful. I'm not aware of any fundamental difference in the braking systems of hauled stock over multiple units. MUs will have air pipes between cars which should cause the brakes to be applied in the event of

I've revised the article to limit some of the statements to NA practice; therefore the European picture needs to be filled in. If you have books to which you can refer, by all means do so. That site that you keep trying to use, however, is not acceptable. And I think you need to set aside your

I took out a reference on the benefits of electrification from an advocacy site. This article needs real references, but not like that. It's clear that we are going to have to get together a set of references on electrification and compose them into something more sophisticated than the "more

Of course it is, but that would change Knowledge (XXG) irrevocably from "the encyclopedia that any zit-faced teenager can edit and have equal weight as an expert in the field", something the current cabal in charge isn't likely to countenance. So expect things to get worse, not better.
762:
well-documented: absent high density passenger traffic (and therefore government subsidy) it just doesn't pay here. If you want to show that the rest of the world is going to European all-electric route, then cough up some statistics. Heck, at this point I'm not willing to believe that
2096:
That might be a good idea if we left a paragraph or so, of information about the locomotive types on the locomotive page, but had links to their own articles which went into much more detail, but it would only be worth while if the split off articles had a lot more information.
1295:. This article is already substantial and covers the complex and detailed history of the development of locomotives. The job of a locomotive engineer is a substantially different subject that wouldn't fit well with the rest of this article and deserves its own coverage. Best, 213:
This barely conforms to wikipedia standards considering it's such an important article. Surely it should be a basic description of what a locomotive is, and then there should be links to the history of the locomotive, the diesel locomotive, the steam locomotive, and so forth.
2165:
I notice that the definition of push-pull working given here (one engine at each end) is different from that given on the Push-pull page (engine at one end, and engine OR DRIVING CAB at the other). The first definition may be exact in the US, but certainly not in Europe.

lies on someone who wishes to advance a particular position. In this case there is a clear difference. Of course it is an international encyclopedia, but Europe is a smaller part of the world than is North America; it is as wrong to extrapolate from one as from the

reasoning above, I believe the situation is far more complex than you are representing it. For example you are ignoring the cost of electrification which is substantial, even when amortized over a long time. That's exactly why we require that you use
855:. Anyone who knows anything about train transportation knows that the U.S. is in the Dark Ages compared to, not only Europe, but most of the rest of the world in this regard. But the U.S. is full of a lot of ignorant and misinformed people as well. + 532:
efficience of a diesel-electric engine: no more than 30%, sometimes around 0.2 even. I've no procise data for railway engines, but never read of superior values (remember there are also thermodynamics principles bounding efficience of any thermical

that something like this statement is true, though the fact that essentially no freight traffic travels under electrification in the USA tends to qualify it at best and refute it at worst. Come up with a plausibly neutral reference and we can talk.

I intend to move bits about longest running, oldest operating, and speed records to steam loco page, and delete the beautiful animation of the valve gear which is already on the steam loco page and can't really be justified
107:
It would perhaps be better to explain in terms of efficiency and also time to start which is a very big issue and I suspect (but don't have references) for being one of the big reasons diesel shunters took off early on.
1364:
Seems an appropriate move, after all, "locomotive" is clearly defined in the lede, and these do not fit that definition. By the same token, the ref to the TGV speed record should be removed from the electric section.
592:. The short answer is you need to find a reliable, unbiased source that has made the claim you want to insert. These sources are for the conclusion you want to draw, not for the primary sources for the data you want. 74:
The steam section talks about coal resource exhaustion "especially in Europe". This is wrong to say the least. Most of Europe still has coal coming out of its ears but diesel is still (for the moment) vastly cheaper
1305:
I don't think the articles should be merged. In once case, the subject is a machine and in the other, the subject is the individual who is responsible for operating the machine. Two completely different topics.

Of course that's cheating somewhat by throwing in Greenland, but since the USA alone is almost as big as Europe (by their measures), Greenland doesn't throw things off that much. 1638:"It has been found impractical to build a gearbox which can cope with a power output of more than 400 horsepower (300 kW) without breaking, despite a number of attempts to do so." 1659:
