Record, No. 65, p. 29|============================================================================== In proportioning grade resistance for any line, therefore, a locomotivemay be counted on to utilize 24. 3% of the weight on the drivers for adistance of 5 miles on a 0. 002 grade without any assistance frommomentum, and, in the ev...ent of an unexpected stop, should be able, assoon as a full head of steam is built up, to start the train and carryit over the grade. This is probably a maximum, considering the conditionof the equipment of this Virginian Railway, as previously mentioned.
Treating Item 14 in the same way, a distance of 2, 310 ft. Is accountedfor by momentum, leaving, say, 5. 5 miles for the steam, or the length ofa 0. 02 grade on which a locomotive may be loaded on a basis of tractivepower equal to 24. 2% of the weight on the drivers.
