. Locomotive engineering : a practical journal of railway motive power and rolling stock . glars bylocking the front door and permitting therear door to stand wide open? Instruction Room Device for Showing Movement of Quick-Action : Under separate cover is being sent youa photograph of a device for showingthe action of the quick-action triple Decker, air brake inspector of theSouthern Pacific, and myself, through thekindness of Mr. Small, superintendent ofmotive power and machinery, got thisscheme up, and it is now in the engineersroom in the Sacramento the photo it will be seen that tin:! i e is made up mostly of wrecked ma-terial. On the upper triple we drilled a hole ing valve and pi ton. We have an E-6i piping to rep-resenl a tender, and piping, and hose andcoupling i repri enl two u foot , and is an ex-cellent means of showing the action ofthe triple valve. H. C. Francisco, y Fred. The old stereotyped rule, Keep the mainreservoir drained, is all right as far as itgoes. But it only guards one end of theline. Something is needed at the otherend. Brakemen may knock the couplingheads together to dislodge the loose snow,but in zero weather they will not clear outthe packed snow and ice. Is there no wayby which brakemen and others can becompelled to hang up the coupling in thedummy, where it belongs? This is a seri-ous question that deserves due considera-tion. Amos , Mass. through the emergency check valve, andscrewed the ;4-inch steel rod into theemergency valve. Then below we tookan old triple, and cut it off down to theslide-valve seat, and drilled a hole so thatthe rod would strike the emergency pis-te m in the center. This shows the move-ment of the emergency piston and emer-gency valve. On the lower brake the rod is fastenedto the emergency check valve, and showsthe movement of that valve. We thenhave a triple with both sides cut out. anda piece of l
