In a-teain being hauled by a locomotive, there is no driving noise or vibration to transmit itself "into the body of the carriage: The only sound. and vibration come from the support elemerit, from the wheels running on the tracks. Ergo, said the French, let's attack the problem there. = This they did by using pneumatic _rubber-tired wheels, running__ dir- -ectly on the rails, with a metal flange to keep them on the track. *An ordinary railroad car would be too heavy to put on rubber tires, ' 30 the French designed a light- weight "modern type of streamline train, with carriages weighing 14° tons instead of the usual 40 tons, Even "this weight caused for wide distribution in using pneumatic tires, so there are 20 wheels to take it.
