A family of transmission gearing arrangements produces nine forward speed ratios and one reverse speed ratio. Each arrangement includes a two state shift element. In a first state, the shift element passively holds a shaft against rotation in one direction while permitting rotation in the opposite direction. In a second state, the shift element holds the shaft against rotation in both directions. The shift element may be implemented as a combination of a one-way-brake and a dog clutch. Each arrangement also includes a gearing arrangement that produces three speed relationships between an input and an intermediate shaft, including an underdrive relationship, a reverse speed relationship, and holding the intermediate shaft against rotation.
