. The Street railway journal . n. lifting cylinder is provided, however, for each nose, andcompressed air may be employed for lifting the noses and oper-ating the gear. The wing operating mechanism is novel in de-sign, of exceeding simplicity, of great strength and almost whollyof wrought iron. The same remarks apply to the digger mech-anism, which has received the most careful attention. The other plow illustrated is the companys standard shareplow. The house and body of this share plow are, as far aspossible, exactly like the corresponding parts of the standardnose plow, the end of the body frame being changed to meet therequirements of a share rather than a nose. The height of theshare of this plow is to be especially noted, and the ingenious STANDARD SHARE PLOW arrangement which allows the share extension to be both raisedand lowered by one rope from the cab will please every practicalrailroad man. The snow-protecting casing back of the share isfastened in part to the main frame and in part to the share DETAIL OF LIFTING DEVICE turning out these plows, and is now ready to accept orders for thecoming season.
