The motor axleoverhangs the driving each end of each motor axleis a counterweighted this crank a connectingrod conveys the torque to a jackshaft upon which, at each end,is another counterweightedcrank. From the jack-shaft cranka second connecting rod transmitsthe force to the driving wheelswhich are connected by a thirdconnecting rod. Figs. 249, 250, and 251 showthe details of the constructionof the essential features of thislocomotive. Fig. 249 shows themachine practically complete butwithout the cab and the electricalcontrol apparatus. From the me-chanical standpoint the locomo-tive differs from the New YorkCentral type in several importantparticulars. The wheel-base isvery short as the rigid part of eachunit contains but two unit has a swivel pony truckwhich is designed to hold the unitto the track without is not quite as muchweight on the drivers as in the 359. 360
