In this connection it is of interest tonote the parts on this Pacific type engine which are commonto other types of locomotives on the associated lines whichinclude the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific. Oregon Short & Alton, Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company andthe Kansas City Southern. The following are some of themore important parts common to the standard Atlantic, Pa-ifii, consolidation and switch engines, with exceptions asnoted: Eccentrics: cross heads, piston valves, except switchengines: driving boxes, except main, which is common toconsolidation and Pacific type; truck wheels, except consoli-dation; smokebox arrangements; exhaust nozzle; petticoatpipe: general design of cab: grates: grate castings; boilerdiameter, except consolidation; size of firebox, except switch-er: four-wheel engine
