These engines are equipped with theSchmidt superheater, brick arches and feed-water trial performances it is found that the 2-8-0 loco-motives were capable of hauling, on the level, 1,150 longtons at a speed of 40 while the 2-10-0 type was ableto handle 1,400 long tons at the same speed. It is inter-esting to note that these engines are not compound and asa matter of fact with the present degree of refinement insuperheating and feed-water heating, the engineers of thePrussian-Hessian have given up the idea of building anymore comjiound Erecting Shop at Krupps being shown in the accompanying table.
