pretty good general description snipped

I think that the shoes attached to bogies on LUL stock only feed the
motors on that bogie, but I stand to be corrected.


On LU there is a busline within each car (so all poss shoes are connected,
likewise both negative shoes) and from one motor car to the adjacent trailer
to feed the compressor/s.
