The absence of large or flat wearing parts in a valve gear isappreciated by those charged with the upkeep, and in this gear,as in several others, all wear is faken by pin connections, whichmay be casehardened and replaced when necessary at a mini-mum of expense. The absence of any great weight in the mov- dispatching trains by telephone has been authorized and will b
