The foregoing are the figures obtained inthese tests, but lower figures were ob-tained in the test of a smaller Atlantictype locomotive. With an of of at ,h., theprincipal fuel and water results are asfollows: dry fuel per , lbs.; drysteam per , lbs.; dry fuel per d. the locomotive is held under steam, northe fuel consumption on the ashpit andwhen building Interior View of Observation Cars for Austrian State Railways. sively to 160, 200, 240, 280, 320 and 360,the latter corresponding to a speed of per hour. The following are someof the observed results at the latter highspeed: cut off, ; mean pressure, per sq. in.; draft in smokebox, water, and in ashpan, in.; dry fuel, lbs. per hour and lbs. per of grate; water to iboiiler per hour,38,846 lbs.; equivalent evaporation, 52,084lbs.; evaporation per hour per sq. ft. ofheating surface, lbs., and per lb. ofdry fuel, lbs.; boiler horsepower, :superheat, degs.; dry steam to cylin-ders, 37,594 lbs. per hour; indicated horse-power, ; dry fuel per , lbs.;dry steam per , 16 lbs.; drawbar pull, , lbs.; dry steam per , While it is conceded that the is thebest basis in denoting the performanceof a locomotive, it must b
