Not only may locomotives withrather small boilers be considerably im-proved in steam-making ability, but pres-sures may actually be reduced in connec-tion with superheating, to a hmited ex-tent, without noticeable loss of operation it has been noticed that theboiler pressure of a locomotive usmgsuperheated steam may vary within widelimits during a run without such decreasein speed as wouW follow the same fluc-tuations in pressure in a locomotive usingsaturated steam. This becomes rather im-portant from an operating as a question of economy, the Tate FlexibleStaybolt.
