. Railway and locomotive engineering : a practical journal of railway motive power and rolling stock . season ofthe >ear when the danger from frozenbrake pipes must be guarded against,and to do this intelligently, the designanc the number of main reservoirs, to-gether with the method of piping them, The New Westinghouse Feed Valve. The accompanying illustrations of thisdevice given herewith will explain the op-eration of this accurate and thoroughlyreliable piece of mechanism, which is sogenerally coming into use on steam rail-roads, where a reliable feed valve is re-quired, as well as in electric traction serv-ice. These two cuts are purely diagram-atical, and are employed merely to givean understanding of the workings of theinner parts of the valve, attachmentbrackets and other parts being inten-tionally omitted. Main reservoir pressure enters at porta, passmg through port d in the slidevalve to port e, branching off into portf, where it finally reaches the left sideof the diaphragm of the adjusting at-tachment. Passing fiom port e. the pres-sure enters the train pipe, thus giving.
