Railway and locomotive engineering : a practical journal of railway motive power and rolling stock . ing trans-portation they should make their ap-plication for passes as early as possibl to put in a by pass pipe with a cutout cock and check in it, the check toretain pressure in the auxiliary reser-voir when a train line reduction ismade? This by pass pipe could be tappedinto the tee strainer in the train line valve handle slowly back to runningposition. The air flows through thebrake valve into the train line from themain reservoir from the train line bythe way of the by pass into theauxiliary. The train line and auxiliary, there-fore, will recharge equally, retainingthe brakes set until within a few poundsof standard train line pressure. Then,by a sudden movement of the brakevalve handle into full release position,the brakes will release. Safety valves may be put on theauxiliary reservoirs to insure againstover charging, and it will be found thatit works like a charm. TheT-elease is accomplished by thesudden rush of twenty or twenty-fivepounds of excess pressure into the «. Triple.
