Superintendent of Motive Power the driving-wheels is 174,700 lbs. the fac-tor of adhesion is These enginesare intended for fast freight cylinders are 17^ and 29 by 28ins. and the driving wheels are 69 diameter. The pistons are all coupled to the sec-ond axle which is the main driving one,and the inside or high pressure cylindersare inclined at an angle of 7° so that themain rods can clear the leading drivingajfle. The two cranks on the same sideof the engine instead of being placed180° apart, are 173 apart; this arrange-ment is necessary on account of the in-clination of the high pressure cylinders, that the pistons may start theirstrokes at the same instant. The frontof these cylinders are 45^ ins. higherthan the back. The Walschaerts valve gear has beenapplied to these engines, the pistonvalves being driven by a rocker shaft and with the figure already quoted forthe adhesive wei
