10 Velaro The high-speed platform Advantages of distributed traction over power car Traction distributed over the entire train provides around 20% more seats for the same length train Improved acceleration and braking through more uniform effects of frictional forces Reduction in mechanical wear through distributed driving power Less stress on the tracks through lower axle loads More effective noise insulation, since traction components are under the floor Page 10 September 13, 2009
