The principal features of this type oflocomotive have been frequently de-scribed in our pages, and it will onlybe necessary to peruse the table of di-mensions and the description of ma-terial to form an estimate .of the finequality and great tractive power ofthese powerful locomotives. Thosewho are familiar with the long stretchesof the Missouri Pacific, especiallyfrom Kansas City to Pueblo, will knowthat the elements of durability is avery essential requisite to such distances required to be run byone locomotive would seem incredibleto those who are only familiar withEastern service, and the result of theoperations of these locomotives will bewatched with interest, as the tendencytoward heavier locomotives
