MAINTENANCE OF WAY. 399 A large sized Gates stone crusher is illustratedby Fig. 258; this is of the rotary style which istaking the place of those having a jaw worked bya reciprocating motion. The drawing gives thedetails of the crusher and Fig. 259 shows the. Fig. 259. GATES REVOLVING SCREEN FOR SCREENING CRUSHED STONE. rotary screen used to separate the crushed stoneinto the various sizes desired. A plant with storage bins and three loadingtracks is shown by Fig. 260. To economicallyoperate this plant the loading tracks should be ona light grade sufficient to easily move the loadedcars by hand; the empty cars should be placed atthe high end of the siding and run under thestorage bins by hand. After they are loaded theyshould be run by hand to the lower end of theloading tracks, thus avoiding the use of a switchengine. A portable railroad ballast plant is often usec^where rubble stone can be obtained withoMquarrying as is often the case along rocky blufts 400 BUILDING AND REPAIRING RAILWAYS, and hillsides. After the supply of rubble stonehas been exhausted at one point the plant canbe readily moved to another.
