MODEL MOTIVE POWER.

The Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road
Company has recently placed iu SER
vice on Its fast trains between New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington, three new engines
which are doubtless the finest and
fastest ever built in this country.
These new flyers have driving wheels
six feet, six inches high and cylinders
20 inches by "a. The large cylinders
give them tremendous power and the
high drivers protect the machinery
form the rack and strain incident
to driving smaller engines at great
speed. There is practically no limit
to the speed to which these new mar
wells may be driven and they skim
over the rails as smoothly as a swal-
low over lake.
Another recent addition to the mo-
tive power of the company is a con-
signment of eight powerful ten wheel
passenger engines, disigned for SER
vice on the mountain divisions.
These are the heaviest ten wheel en-
gines ever constructed, weighing six
ty seven and one-half tons. They
have driving wheels six feet two
inches high and cylinders 81 inches by
rs. One of these machines PERFORMS
the work heretofore requiring two of
the ordinary class and they take the
heavy through express trains up the
mountain grades quickly and with
perfect ease.
The Mt. Glare shops of the COM
pany have recently completed an Or
der for ten switch engines of the high
est type, and sufficiently powerful
to make up train equal to the full
drawing power of a consolidation
freight engine. Also three new
heavy eight wheel passenger engines,
having driving wheels FIVE feet eight
inches, and cylinders twenty inches,
by twenty four. These engines
are doing excellent work; they are
very, powerful and susceptible of
great speed.
In addition to the foregoing the
Company has now under construction
at It's Mt. Glare Shops ten powerful
ten wheel engines designed for fast
freight service and for heavy passen-
gar trains on occasion, also twelve
consolidation freight engines of great
power.
These additions to its motive pow
er are in line with the other great i'm
provements constantly being made
In the general betterment of the B. &
U. property by its present manage
ment, which have been noted by the
press from time to time, and the rapid
augmentation of the passenger
raffic of the company indicates that
the public is quick to recognize the
present and constantly increasing eff.
fciency of its service.
