Tlie smoke box of a locomotive isgenerally considered to be pretty hot,and you would probably find it so ifyou were sitting close beside it on afine day in early August, taking indi-cator diagrams, as the heavily loadedengine crawled slowly up grade, givingyou with late cut-ofT, regular goldbrick cards. That smoke box heat. V an .\lst3-ue. Mech- Supt. The wheels are all flanged and themain driver is the middle pair. Thedriving wheels and the carrying wheelsat the back are all equalized togetherwith well jointed gear. Overhung semi-clliptic springs are used, composed eachof 16 plates 4x7/16 ins. The mainvalves are of the piston type, driven motion. The crosshead is lippednp under the notched edge of the upper^uide bars, and the yoke grasps theguides almost midway between the ends. The pedestal binders are made to sur-^round the ends of jaws and a wedgeat each end draws the binder what acts as a spacing piece inthe center. There is a lug on the un-der side of the binder through whichthe wedge bolt is tapped, and when thenuts are slacked off the wedge can be \CrFlL 46-2 KNGINE. smoke seam, and therefore thesmoke box is that much longer thanit looks.
