Did the inter car jumpers on the old Melbourne trains carry the full 1500
volts for panto raise/lower and the several steps (notches) of MU control
and the reversers ?

Would there have also been full line voltage on the inter car jumpers for
the carriage lighting on trailer cars ?

Hello Mick,

How were the other pantographs of the train raised if there was no power
for MU 'panto raise' connections between carriages ?

What about emergency lighting in event of a OHW power failure between
stations at night ?
