Uound

The Evening Star-Sentinel, of Sedalia,

pound Locomotives" and after speaking
OF the disappointments that had hereto
fore been met in introducing these en-
zines. concludes
THE only compound that has been
built. up TO the present time that is CIV
ing universal satisfaction to all the diff
ferent workings. is the Richmond COM
pound. They are the only engines that
are being used. not as an experiment.
but as reality. These engines have in
their build a theoretical plan for the use
of steam on a compound principle and
the weight of the engine is placed in
such a position that the same is used to
the best advantage unlike the arrange
ment Of the Baldwin COMPOUNDS.
"The work Of these engines on the Mis-
souri, Kansas and Texas. railroad is Civ
ing universal satisfaction. and in the near
future this type Of engine will be more
extensively used than any other"
