has gloss | eng: The NZR RM class Edison battery-electric railcar was a popular and successful railcar that ran in Canterbury, New Zealand for eight years. The prototype was arguably the first successful railcar in New Zealand but it was not developed into a class. The railcar had a wheel arrangement of Bo-Bo under the UIC classification system, weighed 32 tonnes, had driving controls at each end, and with an engine output of 90 kW (120 hp), it travelled comfortably at 60 km/h. In appearance, it looked like a cross between a regular railway passenger carriage and a tram; side-on, it looked like a passenger carriage, but each end resembled the front of a tram from that era. |
