THE HISTORY OF RAILWAY ELECTRIFICATION
The world railways are searching the ways to increase their economic efficiency and the speeds of passengers and goods trains. One essential condition to achieve this is electric traction.
The first attempt to apply electricity to transport purposes was made by Jacobi, a Russian physicist and electrical engineer. In 1838 he ran an electric boat at a speed of about 5kph on the Neva River.
Another major success in using electric power was made by Werner von Siemens who was the first to produce a passenger electric locomotive. His locomotive was demonstrated at the exhibition in Berlin in 1879.
Two years later a small electric railway, the first one in the world, was put into operation in Berlin. Then an electrically operated railway was built in the British Isles. It was an underground railway in London opened to traffic in 1890.
In spite of having a relatively short history electric traction has made a remarkable progress. Electric railways perform valuable service on every continent.
