No. 3 RAILROAD DIGEST 109 Shop Hoists Railway and Engineering Review, Jan. 5, 1901, p. 3. Under the head of Shop Notes the Review says a fewwords about shop hoists and has three half-tone cuts showingimcuniatic hoists, stationary and with trolleys, which run onchannel li; The Review says the ease with which a sys- mm. tern of channels on which to run traveling hoists can be placedin a railway machine shop makes it often seem odd that sucha system is not a more usual sight. [We reproduce two illustrations of the hoists, showing themon single and double rails; the method of supplying air is notshown. Although the matter is not referred to in the article,the illustrations show the hoists very cleverly placed so as toget the maximum lift with the minimum use of head room.
