If the spring tothe feed valve broke, or anything happenedto prevent air going through the feedvalve or the excess-pressure valve, noair could be got to the train pipe andtrouble would ensue. We have alwaysfavored the little kink on the first Boydenvalve, a spring that was compressed whenthe handle was placed in full release, butwhich forced the handle to running posi-tion the moment the engineer let go of it is that the engineer .should havea chance to get direct connection to histrain pipe—it is the safest Construction—The AutomatiCjElectricSystems—Continued.[sixth paper.] An automatic electric signal, with which,no doubt, the most of us are familiar, isthe banner or clock-work signal shown inPigs.
