Madgeburg.—As yet the compound engine doesnot get away quite so quickly as the ordinary loco-motive. The jerky motion when starting disappearsafter two or three revolutions. Three of the goodsengines have the Von Borries starting valve; withthe other engines live steam can be admitted to thelow pressure cylinder through a cock under the con-trol of the driver. This arrangement is not auto-matic, the driver must shut off the live steam sup-ply. A flap valve prevents this steam obtaining ac-cess to the high pressure cylinder. This later ar-rangement is found to be quite as good as the VonUorrieti. In long runs the generation of steam isbetter with the compound than with the standardengine. The work done by the com
