TWO crews ON MORE
PENNSYLVANIA trains

AS an experiment the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company on its Middle Divi-
sion is allowing two crews to every
passenger engine. Since the introduce
ton three years ago of the new class
freight and passenger engines the
company has been getting all the
mileage possible out of each engine.
Three crews were assigned to every
two engines. Such assignments kept
the engines running night and day,
and it is said did not allow sufficient
time in shops and roundhouses for
proper inspection and repairs.
Statistics showing the number OF
miles each engine made in a week
and the volume of repairs developed,
It is said, that working the engines
too intensively does not pay.
The new engine order, applying
only TO passenger locomotives, will
therefore be tried out on the Middle
Division. II satisfactory, further
changes will likely be made.
