Locomotive Company, Builders. powers at various speeds from starting upto 50 miles per hour of the Frisco loco-motive and the average for 5 other repre-sentative Pacific type locomotives of re-cent construction of approximately thesame weight is given in the annexedtable. Assuming that the locomotive will de-liver a tractive power of 14,660 poundsat 50 miles per hour, as shown in theannexed table; this would mean 1,950 in-dicated horse power. At a rate of steamconsumption of pounds per 1 h. hour, a conservative average figurefor a superheated engine, even when notworked to its capacity, and includingsteam used in cylinders and air pumpsand losses through safety valves thiswould mean a water evaporation of 42,-206 pounds or pounds per sq. ft. ofheating surface per hour. Except with apoor grade of coal, the boiler should beable to maintain this rate of evaporationat 1
