The Pennsylvania has ordered 40 of the Bald-win Locomotive Works for heavy freight service. The LakeShore & Michigan Southern has ordered 25 consolidationfreight and five ten-wheel passenger engines from the BrooksLocomotive Works, and among the smaller orders is one forsix Baldwin compounds for the Rock Island. This is a newdeparture for this road. 120 AMERICAN ENGINEER AND RAILROAD Eight-Wheel Passenger Locomotive.—Boston & Albany R, B. PURVES, Superintendent of Rolling Stock. Schenectady Locomotive Works, Builders. EIGHT-WHEEL PASSENGER LOCOMOTIVE. Boston & Albany Railroad. When the Schenectady Locomotiye Works built two eight-wheel passenger engines in 1894 for the Boston & Albany,with a total weight of 114,700 pounds, weight on drivers 74,000pounds, and a total heating surface of 1, square feet, theywere considered wonderful in size and power. These enginesmay be considered as marking the beginning of the useof large heating surfaces in engines of this type. Theywere followed, two years later, by engines of the same type,and same builders, for the Big Pour. These had squarefeet of heating surface, with a total weight of pounds,and 83,000 pounds on drivers. The Chicago & North WesternClass A engines, built in the same year, were similar to theBig Four engines, but not quite as powerful. Last year
