The Railway.


LoUGHRIDGE's CAR BRAKE.-Mr. Burrows, Su.
perintendent of the Toledo & Wabash Railway, in
order to give the above brake thorough trial, fit
ted up train of cars with it attached, and On
Wednesday last trial trip was made upon the Air
Line Road.
The train consisted of three passenger cars, and
one baggage car, with an engine weighing ls tons,
and with feet inch driving wheels. The day
was fair, and cold and the truck dry thus afording
opportunity for fair test of the capacity of the
invention.
Experiments were made in the order, and with
the results stated.
lst Running at the rate of 81, miles per honr.
in seconds from the first sound Of the whistle the
operation of the brakes was felt. The brakes were
Immediately let up, aud in nine seconds more the
second whistle sounded, and the brakes again ap-
piled, by which the train was brought to stand
in l9 seconds from their last application, and after
having run within the last mentioned time 63S
feet
Sd Running at the rate of Sc miles per hour the
train was stopped in % seconds and sitter running
ga feet, after the application Of the brakes.
4th. Running at the rate of As miles per hour
the train was stopped in 20 seconds by the sppli-
cation of only one finger to the brake lever and af
ter having ran 800 feet.
5th. Running at the rate of so miles per hour,
the hand brakes were applied by four experienced
brakesmen, and the train was stopped in 81 Sec
onds and after running 1917 feet.
9th Running at the rate of 80 miles an hour the
patent brake was again applied, and the train stop
ped in 81 seconds, after having run 1872 feet.
9TH. The train running at an ordinary rate Of
speed, signals were thrown out and Obeyed by the
engineer, in such a manner as to check the speed
Of the train, and bring it within the control of the
engineer and started again. times, and finally
stopped, in 81 seconds.
Sth. The charge Of the brakes was given to a
gentleman wholly inexeriened in such matters, by
whom, the train running.at the,.ra of As miles
per hour, was stopped in 20 seconds.
| The above statement of experiments is signed
aud the brake heartily recommended to the favor
able consideration of railroad men, by the follow
ing practical and scientific Judges:
| ]. a. JAcKMAN, Supt. C. & T. R. R., JNo D
CAMPBELL, Supt' NJ. S. & NJ. R. R., GEO. Il
BURROWS, supt T. & W.R. R., L. R. WALLAcE

N. c. & Pa ARR, ]. E. BAKER, Asst Supt
7 & W. R. R., R, MEEKs, NJ. NJ J, & C. R. r., W
F. RAY, NJ. M.T.& W.RR
There is another important feature. which is
that should the train become divided, the effect
the operation will be to set the brakes thus check
ing the speed and giving warning to the enginee
that all is not right. We hope to see this trad
adopted on roads running from Cleveland.
