INTERLOCKlNG PLANT,
ILLINOIS CENTRAL WILL SAVE
MANUAL LABOR AND MONEY
AT CAIRO.

The Illinois Central is installing an
electric interlocking plant at Cairo,
ILL.,, which gives promise Of proving
especially valuable. The plant is To-
Gated at the junction Of the Illinois
Central with the Mobile and Ohio,
and includes twenty three levers,
operating fifteen switches, fourteen
signals and one movable point frog.
From the junction point the two roads
pass over the single tracks Of the Iii.
nois Central up to and across the
bridge over the Ohio river. without
any interlocking plant the roads would
be compelled to stop their trains at
the junction, which would be espe-
cially Objectionable because of the
grade on the approach to the bridge.
The new work replaces an old manual
plant, will require four less men for
its operation, and an unusual feature
to be included will be the operation Of
. switch at the entrance to the bridge,
which is located some $500 feet from
the tower. For the lighting Of the
signals, lamps Of only one candle
power will be used, requiring but four
fifths Of an ampere for the plant, and
by using this size light one storage
battery Of fifty-five cells can be made
TO light the signals and to operate
switches and signals. Though but
small plant. it will prove one of con-
siderable economy and usefulness in
the handling Of trains at this point.

ON the figures Of last month when a
saving Of $40. 900 was effected by the
use of fuel on thirty -nine engines Of
the western division.
