[net.railroad] Unusual motive power

jpg@sdchema.UUCP (12/23/83)

       Apparently during WWII, in order to take advantage of their plentiful
hydroelectric power, the Swiss rigged up what might be called an electric-steam
locomotive. A pantograph(sp?) was mounted on the roof of the cab and the water
was heated by an electric heating element!
       Unfortunatly, I dont remember the name of the book where I read about
this but perhaps someone out there does. A reference to a photo would be
appreciated.
