Thedifference between the two weights rep-resented the amount of coal used on thetrip. The tank was fitted with a graduatedwater-glass and thermometer, which wereread before and after each lilling of thetank. From these readings the amount the train was got moving, and representssteam cut off at about 45 per cent, of thestroke. The calculation shows that theengine is developing a tractive force ofabout 24,759 pounds.
