ed by the White Oaks for the Alamo

sion is being put in order in the local
round house preparatory to being
taken out for active service.
This engine has been specially con-
structed for the heavy grades and sharp
curves of the mo antain, and is'the result
of the joint efforts and experience OF
superintendent Greig of the White
Oaks and tn designers OF the Bald win
locomotive works in Philadelphia.
1t has four distinct features which
adapt it to mountain climbing. 1t has
q short wheel base of only IL feet 3
inches. The blind drivers are eight
inches in width as contrasted with the
6-inch width of the flsnge drivers, end
81 Inch width, of ordinary engine driv-
ers. This great width insures the
keeping of the blind drivers on the
rail on q sharp curve. The front truck
is Bissell pony wide-swing truck, and
has plenty of lee-way.
An emergency feature is the hand'drl-
yer brake, in addition to the air brake
and steam driver brake. This Is for
use on steep grades at critical times,
should the other brakes fail to work.
The weight, of the engine is 166, 600,
