ELIMINATES JOLTS A new type of street car to provide better service for Pittsburgh was placed in operation yesterday by the Pittsburgh Company when the first' multiple unit train left the Home-wood car hou.se for service on the Frankstown avenue route. The new train consists of two motor cars instead of one motor car and trailer as formerly usid. In the multiple unit system, of operation two cars equipped each with four motors and having one-third more motor power are joined together and are operated by three men, one motorman and two conductors. The power is applied from the first car and ia transmitted to the rear car so that both car8 start at the same time.

Either car can be operated singly or No. 1 or No. 2 car in the train. Their position can be reversed. The multiple unit cars have the same seating arrangement as one-man cars recently placed in operation.

One of the difficulties in train operation is overcome by the unit system, that of surging and jerking incident to the trail car without motors as now operated. A multiple unit train can get under way much more rapidly than is possible with the present method, and eliminates the dead weight which has been experienced in hauling the trail car. Thre sets of doors will be available fot loading and unloading which will likely facilitate the entrance and exit from these types of cars. The multiple unit cars which went into service yesterday morning ar-the first of ICO under construction These will be placed in service rapidly as possible following delivery The cam are a Pittsburgh product practically throughout, made by the Standard Steel Car Company and equipped by the Westinghouse All Brake Company and the Westing house Electric and Manufacturing Company.
