Fourteen ofthese locomotives are to be delivered to the Chicago JunctionRailway and later twenty will go to the Pennsylvania LinesWest and five to the Atlantic Coast Line. These locomotivesweigh 165,000 lb. in working order; 55,000 lb. Ijeing carriedon each axle, and they have 21-in. by 28-in. cylinders with51-in. drivers. These engines have many details in commonwith the standard 0-8-0 locomotives which were described inthe Railway Mechanical Engineer for October on page are also a great deal like the Six-wheel switchers builtfor the Chicago & Xorth Western by the American LocomotiveCompany a few years ago. the cylinders, drivers and fireboxesbeing practically of the same dime
