The driving wheelsare 70J4 in. diameter with an adhesion of16 tons per pair, or 48 tons total. Theweight on the front truck wheels is 21tons and on the trailing wheels weight empty is tons and tons. With tender, the entire weightis 137 tons. The boiler has a total heat-ing surface of sq. m. January, 1914. RAILWAY AND LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEERING. 37 DIXONSFLAKE GRAPHITE. There isnt an oil orgrease for railroad serv-ice that wont be im-proved by the additionof some grade of Dix-ons Flake Graphite,chosen according to theclass of work in mind. The fine flakes find theirway with the other lu-bricant to every part ofthe bearing — unlike other lu-bricants—they stay onthose surfaces, identify-ing themselves with themetal and building up apermanent veneer ofpure, unctuous graphite. This graphite film pre-vents metal contact inthe bearing—substitutesthe gliding of graphiteon graphite for thegrinding of metal onmetal. This explains why hot,noisy bearings are im-possible where DixonsFlake Graphite is prop-erly used. And thatmeans less wear, lowerrepairs, fewer interrup-tions, and a saving ofpower.
