Abstract
- The article examines the performance of railroad cars during the 2010 winter season in Great Britain. It notes the significant number of traction motor failures experienced by the Class 319 Thameslink electrical multiple units (EMUs). Electrostars trains experienced water seepage into the Auxiliary Converter Modules (ACM) which caused electrical flashovers on three-phase transformers, inductors and resistors.
