If the control circuit is powered only by the local trolleyvoltage in the lead car and there are no bus jumpers, then the whole train would drop out when the lead car goes over a gap, no? The IRT HI-Vs had a big bus jumper heavy enough for motor current. It was protected by a current limiting resistor. Control power was thus always available. |
