To the bolster side plates and between themnear the outer edge of the upper triangular portion, are rivet-ed inclined eye-plates which receive the bolts to which thestrap, which passes over the tank, is connected by turn-buckles. The hard wood head blocks, which are shaped to conformto the end of the tank and prevent it from moving end-wise, are bolted to the center sills and also to the angleswhich extend from the body bolster to the end sill and areriveted to the bottom of the vertical plate or brace, which.
