It contains 355 , 15 ft. long, giving a total heating surface of 2,930 sq. boiler ratios and ratios of boiler to weights are about theaverage for this type of locomotive. The superheater is of thesame design as used in the Pacific type engines and has 600 of heating surface, which is a ratio of 1 to with theboiler heating surface. The Wahchaert valve gear design as applied to these locomo-tives is an excellent example of probably the simplest arrange-ment of this type of gear. It is all located in practically onevertical plane, and there is but one reversing shaft, and as fewseparate parts as can conveniently be used to fulfil the require-ments. The link bearing and reverse shaft bea
