Thus, with Idper cent, greater maximum tractive powerthan the consolidations, they develop astill greater relative power at speeds of15 or 20 miles per hour. Compared withthe moguls, these new engines have al-most 100 per cent, greater capacity., In detail construction the design hereillustrated follows the builders latest ap-proved practice. It embodies practicallyall of the new features recently introducedli\ them, which have already been widelyadopted, and also some more recently in-troduced. Among the last are the long main driv-ing boxes. The same arrangement wasapplied to the Pacific type locomotivesbuilt for the same road.
