The boiler has a straight top and isbuilt with longitudinal seams having astrength equal to 90 per cent, of the solidplate. The equipment includes a brick-arch and a Schmidt superheater with 38elements. The fire-door is pneumaticallyoperated, and there is a coal-pusher on thetender. The Master Mechanics standardself-cleaning front end is applied. Tworows of Baldwin expansion stays supportthe front end of the crown, and 500 flexi-ble stay-bolts are used in the breakingzone. The steam distribution is controlled bypiston valves 11 inches in diameter, whichare driven by the Southern valve gear is similar to the Walschaerts,in that it uses a return crank and an ec-centric rod. The forward end of this rodis connected, by a
