The air brake of the locomotive is of theordinary Westinghousc type. The airchamber is placed on the front portion of stead of to the slide. The chief dimen-sions of the engines are: Cylinders—Diameters. and ; stroke, inches. Driving wheel, diameter—6 feet 7 inches. Carrying wheels, diameter—3 feet 3inches. Wheel-base—Coupled axles, 8 feet 10inches; bogie truck, 7 feet inches;total, 24 feet 7 inches. Steam pressure—210 Scale foi rig. 3 to 6
