Cross-Tie with Motor Nose Spring SupportPosition of materials, simplicity of design and ease of inspection andrepairs. As stated heretofore no attempt is here made to gointo the details of design. How-ever, it is pertinent to draw the same amount. This is not necessary, due to the absenceof reciprocating movement and the more jjerfect balance ofall rotating parts. Advantage should be taken of this fact. In the following paragraphs a brief description of themajor mechanical parts is given with illustrations of theirconstruction and assembly. A pair of mounted driving wheels with journal lioxeswhich have grease plugs for lubricating the hub liners isshown in Fig. 3. Fig. 4 depicts a jig or template uponwhich the main frames, cross-ties and bumpers are assem-
