By this arrangement, steam instead of fire inthe Baker heater is used, if desired, to circulate the wTater,or steam can be used at the same time as the fire, toheat up quickly. When used in connection with a heater, it is placed atthe back of the heater, as shown in Figure 8, betweenthe return pipe and the pipe connecting top of the coilto the drum. (The heater coil can be cut out if so de-sired.) The steam is controlled by an angle valve, placed atthe top of the 3/^-inch supply pipe. The position of thevalve is such that all water from the condensed steamwill run from it. 58 RULES FOR MOVEMENT OF TRAINS. FIG. 8. BAKER STEAM ATTACHMENT SHOWN FITTED TO HEATER.
