Besides cutting down the danger or

a minimum. the value of the ull-stael

that It protects the entire train from
the fire danger by interposing an un-
burnable barrier between !he locomo-
tive and the coaches The additional
safety secured to postal employees and
the contents of the car is another I'M
portant advantage.
In the new Southern Pacific postal
car, the main feature of the lower
framing are two massive twelve inch
| beams that weight 3liz pounds per
foot, Ii Is mainly due to these beams
that the steel car can Withstand ovor
200 per cent more shock than an ordi-
