The Atchison, Turcica & Santa Ic rccfivcil fnmi the IJuhluinLocomotive Works a simple Pacific type locomotive, which nowforms a part of the exhibit of the builders at the Panama-PacificInternational Exposition at San Francisco, Cal. It is the firstsingle expansion* engine to be built for passenger service on theS;tnta le system in some years. The locomotive is designed to develop the maxiniuiii pos-sible cajiacity within a limiting rail load of 58,000 lb. per pair at the third course. .\ circular opening 10 in. in diameterunder the auxiliary dome permits entrance to the boiler with-out dismantling the standpipe and throttle fittings in the maindome. The boiler is equipped for oil burning, but the stayboltsare so located that arch tubes may subsequently be appliedshould it be necessary to fit the locomotive for coal burningservice. The inside lirebox door sheet is Hanged outward, bring-ing the rivet heads in the water space, and the seam is closed. Bciler of the Santa Fe Simple Pacific Type Locomotive of driviiiy uiieels. and the total weight on the driving wheelsof 172,500 lb. closely approaches this limit. The design wasprepared jointly by the railway company and the builder and,as in all recent Santa Fe locomotives, the details have been de-signed to interchange as far as practicable with those of loco-motives already in service. The new locomotive develops atractive effort of 41,000 lb., with a factor of adhesion of ,and has a total equivalent heating surface of 5,913 sq. ft. Theratio of cylinder tractive effort to equi\alent surface is witli a Clipper calking strip. Tlie U\onnor fire door flange isused and the door seam is welded by the autogenous staybolts are used in the breakage zones in the throat,sides and back as well as in the lirst four rows of crown boiler is equipped with a Schmidt superheater of 40 elementswith a superheating surface of 980 sq. f
