New Six-Coupled Switching Locomotives for the S. A. L. With a Tractive Force of 45,000 Pounds, They Rank Among Most Powerful of the Type Ever Built The Seaboard Air Line has recently received, fromThe Baldwin Locomotive Works, 25 switching locomo--tives of the 0-6-0 type. These locomotives were builtin accordance with specifications furnished by the RailwayCompany, and are designated as Class F-7. They weighwithout tender 180,000 pounds, and as the maximum trac- steel is used for the piston rods, main and side rods, crankpins and driving axles, the last named being hollow boiler has a wide firebox, with a grate which is al-most square in plan, as the length exceeds the width byonly six inches. A brick arch is applied, and is supportedon four water tubers. The superheater is a type A, with. Six-Coupled Switching Locomotive of the Seaboard Air Line Built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works live force is 45,000 pounds, they rank among the mostpowerful locomotives of their type thus far built. Class F-7 is suitable for general switching service, andis designed to traverse curves of 22 degrees. The driv-ing tires are all flanged. Maximum tractive force isdeveloped when cutting off at 65 per cent of the stroke,and to accomplish this the valves have a steam lap of 2l/iinches, and are set with a travel of 8^4 inches. The leadand the exhaust lap are each J/s-inch. The valve gear i>of the Baker type, controlled by the Ragonnet power re-verse mechanism. The cylinder barrels are bushed with gun iron, and arelubricated bv a mechanical lubricator. Carbon vanadium 26 elements, designed for use with a Chambers smokeboxthrottle. The boiler accessories include two steam turrets, one sup-p
