By the term "steam railway electrification" in this discussion is meant the replacement of steam locomotives by electric locomotives or multiple-unit cars, with suitable power supply and feeders for supplying the electricity to the moving locomotives. Many light steam railways and also many elevated systems have been electrified, but in most of these cases the change-over has consisted of the substitution of motor cars for the steam locomotives formerly used, these cars being comparable in the main to what are ordinarily called interurban cars. Since the initial heavy steam railway electrification in 1895 made by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at Baltimore, there have been applications of electric locomotives to all kinds of service, including tunnel and terminal work, heavy suburban traffic, , main-line traffic, grade sections, and switching yards.
