Results of dynamometer car tests carried out on Indian Railways to determine adhesion at start and during running of diesel and a-c electric locomotives placed in service in recent years on broad-gage (5 ft 6 in.) and on diesel-electric locomotives on meter-gage systems; behavior of locomotives with different truck designs and varying wheel-rail conditions is discussed; factors influencing rail-wheel adhesion; wheel slip relay and sanding gear arrangements are compared.
