	Light rail - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Light rail is the successor term to streetcars, trolleys and trams in many locales, although the term is most consistently applied to modern or modernised tram or trolley operations employing features more usually associated with metro or subway operations, including exclusive rights-of-way, multiple unit train configuration and signal control of operations.
		Light rail is generally powered by electricity, usually by means of overhead wires, but sometimes by a live rail, also called third rail (a high voltage bar alongside the track), requiring safety measures and warnings to the public not to touch it.
		Light rail systems are generally cheaper to build than heavy rail, since the infrastructure does not need to be as substantial, and tunnels are generally not required as is the case with most metro systems.

	Light rail Did You Mean light_rail (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Light rail or light rail transit (LRT) is a particular class of urban and suburban passenger railway that utilizes equipment and infrastructure that is typically less massive than that used for rapid transit systems, with modern light rail vehicles usually running along the system.
		While light rail systems' per-mile cost is disturbingly high at first glance, the notion that they are a waste of government money when compared with the ostensibly self-financing highway system is specious and is usually made for ideological/political reasons so as to push the interests of the pro-highway lobby.
		Light rail is also notably low-impact with regards to hard-to-measure quality of life variables (except noise--q.v.), whereas highway construction has historically wreaked havoc on the social capital of neighborhoods where it occurs and leads to cases of alleged cancer clusters and noise pollution in areas directly adjacent to even moderately-traveled routes.

		In England, the Glastonbury chair made an X-shape by crossing the front and back legs, while in Spain X-chairs were inlaid with ivory and metals in the Moorish designs.
		The woodwork was nearly always completely covered with silk or velvet, and the seat was made up of loose cushions resting on webbing between the side rails of the frames.

	Rail gauge Biography,info
		Standard gauge was chosen for the first main-line railway, the LMR, by the British engineer George Stephenson, because it was already a de facto standard in the north of England where Stevenson had designed and built many tramlines and engines.
		The gauges were sufficiently close to allow inter-operation of trains, and in recent years both have been adjusted to a common Iberic gauge (ancho ibérico in Spanish, bitola ibérica in Portuguese) of 1668 mm.
		Iran to the west uses standard gauge, as does China to the east; to the south, Pakistan uses 1676 mm gauge, while to the north, the central Asian republics of Turkmenia, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan use 1520 mm gauge.

		Some broader Rail gauge include 1520/1524 mm (Russia and countries of the former Russian Empire), 1600 mm (Ireland, Brazil, and parts of Australia), 1668 mm (Spain and Portugal), 1676 mm (Pakistan, India, and Argentina).
		In Hong Kong, East Rail provides a metro -like service in terms of capacity of its cars (over 300 each), more standees and few seats, and high frequencies, except sharing some of its track with inter-city service.
		The motive power for locomotive-hauled commuter trains may be either electric or diesel -electric, although some countries, such as Germany and some of the former Soviet-bloc countries, also use diesel-hydraulic locomotives.

	math lessons - Light rail
		Light rail (streetcar, tram, trolley) is a type of railroad, typically in an urban area.
		Cable cars are pulled along a rail track by a continuously moving cable running at a constant speed and on which individual cars stop and start by releasing and gripping this cable as required.
		Siemen's line, for example, provided power through a live rail and a return rail, like a model train setup, limiting the voltage that could be used, and providing unwanted excitement to people and animals crossing the tracks.

		Rail gauge is the distance between the inner sides of the two parallel rails that make up a railway track.
		Gauge rationalisation in Africa is facilitated since four-rail dual gauge of 1000mm and 1067mm contains a hidden gauge, which can be made to be standard gauge, 1435mm.
		Since the existing narrow gauge track is quite likely of a "pioneer" standard, with sharp curves and low-capacity light rails, substantial reconstruction of the existing lines are needed, so gauge unification would be sensible.

		It is clear, though, that light rail only makes sense in areas that suffer from sufficient congestion to make it competitive with cars, and along routes that are too heavily-traveled for even bus rapid transit systems.
		Light rail supporters decry this ideology, pointing to the social costs of continued highway dependence, arguing that such actions are examples known in the behavioral economics literature as "improving one's self to death."
		Safety is ensured by placing the third rail (actually two closely spaced rails) in the middle of the track, and dividing it into eight-metre sections, each of which is only powered while it is completely covered by a tram.

		The transformer of the 13.8V 40A power supply is strongly oversized, maybe because the author didn't calculate it properly, because he didn't got the self-starting thing right, or because he wanted to operate the cores at very small flux densities.
		Some ATX power supplies may work without it if the standby circuit already provides enough voltage (see D30), otherwise a little auxiliary winding has to be added in order to continue powering the control circuit with the same voltage as before.
		In AT power supplies this diode (D19 in AT schematic) is even more critical, because the primary side of these circuits is designed to self-oscillate and provide start-up power to the control circuit in the secondary side through diode "D".
