Consolidation Freight Locomotive, Canadian Pacific Railway MONG the new power recently acquired bythe Canadian Pacific Railway Company areten 2-8-0 type of freight engines. Theseengines are built by the Canadian Locomo-tive Company and embody their latest designsfor this class of work. The locomotives are designed to operateunder 200 pounds of steam. The firebox is ofthe wide type for burning bituminous coaland is 96 inches long and 6$% inches wide; the cylin-ders are 21 inches in diameter by 28 inches stroke; thevalves are of the piston type; and the driving wheels57 inches in diameter. The boiler, which is fed by twoHancock injectors with Sellers check, is equipped withthe Schmidt superheater. Other special equipment con-. sists of straight air brake; Ritter oil pump; Pyle elec-tric headlight; and Washburn flexible pilot coupler. The general dimensions applied to the usual formulagive a tractive effort of 36,800 pounds. The weight ondrivers is 163,675 pounds, the firebox heating surfaceis 161 sq. ft., the tube heating surface is 2218 , total heating surface is 2379 sq. ft., and grate area44 sq. ft. Comparing these figures, the ratio of ad-hesive weight to tractive effort is ; ratio of tractiveeffort to total heating surface is ; ratio of totalheating surface to firebox heating surface is ; ratioof total heating surface to grate area is 54; ratio offirebox heating surface to grate area is ; ratio oftotal heating surface to volume of both cylinders is 212;ratio of grate area to volume of both cylinders s ;
