Post subject:  Fireless Steam Locomotives

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has close-up photos or details of the latest design charging interconnections used on fireless locomotives like the Besler-Porter locos for both the house and the locomotives? Also, is there anyone with experience with the charge rate of a running locomotive that is discharged vs. a cold one as the steel thermal mass and remaining hot water are significant factors.

Thanks,

Matt Janssen
