Posted by Wado MP73 on Tue Dec 12 20:57:31 2006, in response to Re: LIRR: Third rail vs. catenary, posted by AEM-7AC #901 on Mon Nov 6 14:54:28 2006. IIRC, when the RER in Paris was constructed, some of the 600VDC third rail lines were converted to 25kV @ 60hz.All of the 750VDC third rail lines were converted to overhead, earlier conversion was to 1.5kV DC, later ones to 25kV@50Hz except parts of RER C where Z5300 stock were still the mainstay. The last third rail line was converted to RATP T2 line with 750VDC overhead(LRT). |
