| lin, the hearty old Vermont farmer the large
audience that. completely filed the Grand

lowing table of dimensions of the two BIZ
cycle locomotives will be of interest:

Last week. the Portland Company gave the
new bicycle locomotive private trial Mr..
Washington Orr. thorough machinist. was
engineer. Only few persons were present,
and they were we'll pleased with the ex-
hibitlon. The machine steamed backward
and forward upon the track constructed es-
peclally Tor 1t, for more than two hours. 1t
moved easily and started quickly.
The track is short one and for that rea-
son the speed OF the locomotive could not be
tested. Later on an exhibition will be given
IN the presence of Mr.. Boynton and num-
Der of railroad men.
In speaking of some of the advantages of
the bicycle railway system Hon. E. Moody
Boynton, the inventor of the bicycle locomo-
tive, says:
The 20 pound bicycle will carry ten times its
weight. Railroads now require 100 times this
weight or over one ton of train to convey each
weight around the curves ON the iron on fixed
wheels The principal of the bicycle, saving In
weight and friction a hundred fod is here ex-
tended and applied to the present steam rail-
roads. BY this system, not only five fold saving
over the weight of cars of equal capacity for
freight and passengers of the present system, but
a further saving of five fold power required in
rounding curves is effected by the substitution of
single rail bicycle spindle wheels instead of the
double axle wheels of the two rallied tracks now
in use. This saving, five fold in weight, multi
Piled by the saving OF five fold in friction, gives
the bicycle system an advantage so great as to
render comp etiti0n by present railroad or water
transportation impracticable, The average
freight carried BY it. while the bicycle train car
ries more than five times its own weight without
five fold loss of wasteful friction. A saving of at
least ten fold is thus effected by freight twenty
the present system may readily be attained by
substituting the bicycle trains,v
