Il servizio di questo motore è stato osservato con attenzione, ed è stato trovato un grande miglioramento. Nonostante il fatto che vi sia stata una notevole riduzionenel servizio di riscaldamento effettivo, il motore si è trovato a vapore ugualmente bene con quelli che hanno una superficie di riscaldamento effettiva maggiore, e, inoltre, questo motore ha richiesto solo un quantoquaiter di lavoro da eseguire sui condotti, e quello su una divisione in cui le condizioni d'acqua erano notoriamente cattive.

In spite of the factthat there had been a considerable reductionin actual heating service, the engine wasfound to steam equally well with those hav-ing a greater actual heating surface, and, furthermore, this engine required only aboutone-quaiter as much work to be done on theflues, and that on a division where the waterconditions were notoriously bad. What work was necessaryon the flues could be done without removing the brick arch, which is an economy not only in money, but in time as well.It was also found that there was no collection of cinders inthe combustion chamber and that the flues were all open.That the service of this engine was eminently satisfactoryfrom all standpoints is best evidenced by the fact that com-bustion chambers have been specified on all of this last orderof 70 engines, which include passenger as well as freightengines.. :° »° °i lion rhjinibfr Noll.Kit WITH COMBUSTION CHAMBER, PACIFIC TYPE LOCOMOTIVE—■ NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILWAY. point at the sides, which will probably prove to be sufficientto furnish the required circulation for the firebox side sheetsand back head.
