NEW ENGINES AT WORK.
Baldwin Locomotives are Being Tried
Out on Heavy Grades.

Out on Heavy Grades.
The B. & o. Railroad Company has
Just placed in service between IS and
20 of the big new type OF Baldwin pas
senger engines. The engines are re-
garded with awe by engineers and are
conceded to be the most powerful To-
comctives of the kind ever placed in
service on the Baltimore & Ohio The
number run from 2130 and this mora
ing one numbering 2164 was drawing
a fast passenger train. They are eight
wheel superheated engines and can
easily draw two more coaches over
the heavy grades than the largest en-
eines heretofore in the service of the
railroad The old engines hauling
power is duplicated with half the
steam used in the new engines. Where
the old engines had a heat pressure Of
@S5 pounds the superheated locomotive
can easily reach a heat pressure of
COO pounds with the same consump-
ton of coal and the same amount Of
firing. On a test trip one of the new
type OF engines hauled train No. Is
over the Sand Patch grade with IA
coaches on schedule time. In order
70 test the engines further a full stock
train and full merchandise train was
attached to one OF them and it carried
the train better than the big 40 hun
dreds.
