There is a solution to the bouncing pantograph
problem - multiple-unit operation! While one pan bounces, the other is
likely to be still on the wire, and the lights stay on. Shouldn't cost
more than a couple of billion to retrofit MU gear to the whole
fleet.
The first time I saw ever saw a Faiveley pantograph
was in Melbourne at Flinders Street railway station. I think the
Victorian Railway had one fitted on a Parcel Van. Anyone remember
that?
