Interessant ist, dass die Pacific und nicht die Atlantic den Anfang machte. Dass in Russland die Ent­ wicklung versuchsweise noch einen Schritt weiter ging, narnlich zur 4-14--4. kommt daher, dass dort die Mallet -Maschine nicht zu jener uberragenden Bedeutung gelangte wie in den USA, so dass dort die Einrahmenmaschine vermehrt Mallet-Aufgaben uberneh­ men musste . Wesentliche Tatsache der 4-X-2-Achsbildreihe war die gute Laufeigenschaft auch bei hoheren Geschwindigkeiten, wobei das Vcrhaltnis zwischen Maschinengewicht und Reibungs­ gewicht bei den hoheren Triebachszahlen noch relativ gimstig war.jedenfalls gunstiger als beim Achsbild 4-X--4. Zur Hauptsache dienten die 4-X-2-Loks dem mittel schweren bis schweren Perso­ nenverkehr, insbesondere dem schweren Schnellzugsverkehr, aber auch dem Eilguterverkehr, speziell die 4-12-2-Loks. Man kann deshalb nicht sagen, das Achsbild 4-X-2 habe sich nur fur Ex­ pressmaschinen geeignet. Dies lasst sich nur fur das Achsbild 4-6-4 feststellen , denn die Hudsons waren in den USA eindeutig Schnellaufer fur grosse Expresslinien, oft vor illustren Zugen . Die Northern mit dem Achsbild 4-8--4 dagegen eigneten sich auch fur den Eilguterzugsdienst, Dann besassen sie in der Regel einen Triebrad- 0 < 1830 mm.

Virtually all providers of telecommunications must file FCC Form 499-A each year.2 These forms are not filed with the FCC but rather with the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), which serves as the data collection agent. The pool of filers contained in this edition consists of companies that operated and collected revenue during 2006, as well as new companies that file the form to fulfill the Commission’s registration requirement.3 Information from filings received by USAC after October 16, 2007, and from filings that were incomplete has been excluded from this report.
