Status and development possibilities of coal-fired steam locomotives; results of wind-tunnel tests; description of new locomotive types and their economic features; advantages and limitations of steam drive; in author's opinion equally good results can be obtained with steam locomotives as with electric or internal-combustion drive to meet railroad requirements of present and near future.
