P., Tekoa, Wash., writes: I would like to know the difference inthe D-5 and E, F and G-6 brake valves, asmost of them are new ones, and few of ushere are familiar with their differences,though it may be little. A.—The D-5 wasthe first form of brake valve with the feedvalve attachment. The E-6 and F-6 werepractically the same, with the exception ofa few minor structural changes. The G-6is practically the same as the others, ex-cept that it has the slide-valve feed valveattachments, illustrated in a recent numberof AND Locomotive Engineer-ing. (75) R. E. H., Washington, D. : I pulled the whistle cord in the next tolast car on a seven-car train, but could getno signal to the engineer. Then I wenton back to the last car and pulled thatcord and the engineer got the signal allright.
