Adhesion railway
01
粘着鉄道, 接着鉄道
a type of railroad where trains rely on friction between the wheels and the track for propulsion rather than using a cog or rack system
例
In an adhesion railway, locomotives and carriages maintain traction through the weight pressing down on the tracks.
粘着鉄道では、機関車と客車は線路に押し付ける重量によって牽引力を維持します。
Unlike cogwheel railways found in mountainous regions, adhesion railways are more common in flat or moderately sloped terrain.
山岳地帯に見られるラック式鉄道とは異なり、粘着式鉄道は平坦または緩やかな傾斜の地形でより一般的です。
