Air for the Brakes.

On the Central Pacific railroad the cylfn-
ders of the locomotive have been utilized
10 increase the supply of air to the brake.
This is accomplished by reversing the loco
motive when it is going ahead, thus csus-
ing the cylinders to act as air compressors,
driving large volumes of air into the train
pipes and reservoirs To accomplish this u
pipe is taken from the top OF the steam
chest to a safety valve, and thence to the
air drum on the locomotive The reverse
lever is hooked about one notch back Of
the center for ordinary occasions. When
q larger amount Of air is required il Is
hooked still further back. This arrange
ment has been in use about one year, End
since that time there has been no difficulty
from lack of air on grades, even with trains
of considerable length.-New Orleans Plcas
