In service, thesafety-valves are .set at KSO pounds, lintthe boiler and machinery are built for200 pounds. The steam distribution iscontrolled by 9j/i-inch piston valves,which are operated by the Southern valvegear. The Kagonnet imwer reversemechanism is applied. The arrangement of the driver brakeson this locomotive deserve mention. Thespace between the frames is too narrowto permit placing the cylinders side byside, hence the brake is divided, onecylinder operating the s
