Back in the covered wagon days the hydro from part or all of the falls was 25HZ. Some parts of the Western USA were 25 or 30 or 40 HZ. So a set that was built to work on 25 will work on all of the above plus 60. Living in Florida were people move to when retiring you find all kind of strange things Some info on old power plants.  http://edisontechcenter.org/Mechanicville.html Some more info  http://edisontechcenter.org/Niagara.htm
