Theratio of grate to heating surfaces is there-fore as I is to The water spaces around the firebox are4 ins. wide at the mud rini; on the front for air circulation, has been placed be-tween the tank and the steel frame. Thetender trucks are of the arch-bar type,with cast steel bolsters. The arrange-ment of the draw-gear between engine andtender is similar to that employed in theMallet articulated compound engines builtby the American Locomotive Companyfor this road. In the arrangement thedraw-bar pin is horizontal and is in-serted through the side walls of the foot-plate, thus facilitating its removal. The general dimensions, weights andratios of these locomotives are as follows: Weight on drivers -~ tractive effort X diameter drivers -7- total hcnling surface 781.
