The illustrations showthe latest development of each of these types, as built. operated grate shakers are applied. The front end isfitted with the Master Mechanics standard self-clean-ing arrangement. The Young valve gear is used on these locomotives,and is controlled by the Ragonnet type B power re-verse mechanism. The valves have a steam lap of]}i and are line and line on their exhaust edges; andthey are set with a travel of 9 and a lead of %. Thepiston heads are of cast steel, and the driving and reartruck axles are of chrome-vanadium steel. The driv-ing axles are hollow bored. Leading trucks of theConstance resistance type are used on both locomo- ^ ^ ) ■— ._l: >
