In the case of the locomotive, it isn't direct or through a transmission, it generates electricity that powers traction motors, very different scenario.. power output in a loco is generally translated into watts or kilowatts, tractive effort has a whole bunch of additional factors.. but the end result is quite a bit less power available (but still adequate for the job it is called upon to perform) |
