4400-hp GE locomotive for Pennsylvania Railroad features transmission of alternating current in its 11,000-v, 25-cycle catenary distribution system; advantages of air-cooled silicon rectifiers compared with ignitron rectifiers include reduction in space required on locomotive for power conversion equipment and elimination of water-cooling and firing circuits required for mercury-arc tubes.
