CANADIAN PACIFIC
BUILDS BIG ENGINE

The Canadian Pacific railway has
Just constructed at its Angus shops.
In Montreal mammoth locomotive
Ia be used for pulling heavy passenger
trains through the famous spiral tun-
nels near Field Some very original
ideas are embodied In tbs design OF
this big Mallet compound locomotive.
In order To safely make an ordinary
curve this long engine had Ia be made
flexible. and this result has been OBJ
tanned by cutting the locomotive into
two separate units. the rear being
rigidly fastened To the boiler.
The front unit is also connected
with the boiler by sliding and roll
ing supports. which carry the weigh,
of that portion of the boiler resting
upon II. The two units are connected
together by hinged joint. and the
front cylinders receive and exhaust
their steam through the flexible pipes
4 The rear engine swings the boiler
with II to either side as the locomo-
tive rounds curve. When 1t Is COM
sidered that the length of the front
boiler alone In 81 feet from the CEN
ter of the back engine some idea of
the tremendous flange pressure Will
be obtained.-Spokesma Review.
