Fig. 4 represents a very simple and inexpensive arrange-ment by which this system is applied to the heating of car-riages, such as dining, or other saloons, which are not dividedinto compartments. It is also used when the heating oi thewhole carriage is under the control of an attendant, and for. th, heating of corridors, etc. In this case the tube A has ail form ot cap S, into the opposite end of which a pipeT of the same diameter as tube ./ is screwed.
