One of the Monsters Makes q
Good Impression.
Large Engines Go Into Service
West of Omaha.

The Union Pacific has experienced
within the last few years an impetus
for Improvement. Since the last change
in the organization of the company, the
policy has been to build up the road
steadily and with a view to such per-
nanency as would give better service
in both passenger and freight depart
nents. Bridges have been rebuilt and
strengthened. On the line Of the old
Kansas Pacific, which was the nrst
name that the Union Pacific main me
in Kansas ever had. there are compare
lively few of the small rails which were
laid in the early days. Nearly all have
been replaced by heavier steel
The last of the preparations for a
heavier traffic is now being made Re-
Gently. the company placed an order for
something over Is large locomotives, part
Of which order is being delivered now.
These engines are of enormous size. Not
long ago it is said one of them was taken
out for its first run over the rails The
track, however, was not sufficiently
heavy to stand the weight and was bad
" torn up by the locomotive. The new
monsters are being put into service on
the mountain divisions west Of Omaha
and their advent into Union PACING SER
vice is rapidly decreasing the number OF
double-header trains. The locomotives
which they have displaced are doing
work between Kansas City and Denver.
Those numbered between 1 400 and 1850
are on the first division between Kansas
City and Junction City. The 1905,
still heavier class than those used on the
east end, are in service on the divisions
from Junction City to Denver, that part
of the system being much more hilly
than the line east of Junction City.
The company already has decided that
some Of its accommodations for these
locomotives tire too small. The reund-
house and shops at Cheyenne, Wyoming,
are to be enlarged especially for them
