Please elaborate on the problems and benefits of ac vs dc traction motors. What is a stall burn and a flash-over, ect.... I often hear the terms but am not shure what is ment by them. The comment about 2 6000hp units vs 3-4 3000-4400 units interests me. Is the difference in the traction? After all; how much power can be effectively transfered by a given number of wheels? Thanks, Ron
