Atlantic Coast Line 4-4-2. Atlantic Coast Line 4-4-2 were express passenger tender locomotives built by Baldwin Locomotive Works (at that time known as Burnham, Williams & Co), initially for the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad as classes I/I-2 and I-3.  They were the first design in the world to exploit the larger boiler and firebox possible with a  design compared to the classic .

Design and build
The advantages of the  design included a large boiler and a firebox of "desirable form" with "ample depth and width" which could be fitted over the rear frames, and this design for the first to exploit those features. There were also claimed of improved riding compared to some other types.  The design specification called for the ability to haul a ten-coach train up a 32 foot grade ( or 1 in 165) at .

The initial batch of five were constructed in 1894/5.  Further members classified as Class I/I-2 were built and the final two classified class I-3 were constructed in 1900.

History
The class was introduced to the constituent companies operating the ACL brand from 1894-1895.

Legacy
The adoption of the name Atlantic for the class and subsequently the  wheelbase arrangement itself derives from name of the railroad they were supplied to.  The advantages of the "Atlantic" type led to several other designs around the start of the twentieth century adopting the  wheelbase for express passenger work including the Milwaukee Road class A2, Pennsylvania Railroad class E1, as well as several railroads abroad for example the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Class 7 in the United Kingdom.  Later in the Twentieth century preference moved to  for ten-wheeler locomotives despite the consequent difficulties in achieving an effective firebox design.

2-Methyloctane. 2-Methyloctane is a branched alkane hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C9H20. It is a colorless, flammable liquid

Combustion reactions
2-Methyloctane burns in the same way as other alkanes. Where there is enough oxygen, nonane burns to form water and carbon dioxide, so 2-methyloctane would do the same.

C9H20 + 14 O2 → 9 CO2 + 10 H2O

When insufficient oxygen is present for complete combustion, carbon monoxide is produced.

2 C9H20 + 19 O2 → 18 CO + 20 H2O

Maxim M/09-21. The Maxim M/09-21 is a Maxim machine gun variant made by Finland and used by the Finnish army during World War II.

History 
The Finnish Civil War in 1918 led to Finland becoming an independent democratic republic. The new Finnish army needed a machine gun to distribute to its troops. The most easily accessible machine guns were Russian PM M1910 Maxim machine guns captured during the civil war, but the wheeled mounts the machine guns used were unsuited to Finnish terrain which was mainly forests. Finland decided to make their own Maxim variant, more suited to the Finnish terrain, by developing a tripod and then mounting a Russian Maxim machine gun on it. The tripod, which would be ready for production in 1921, was derived from to the one on the DWM's MG 09 machine gun (the export version of the MG 08 machine gun) which Finland had used successfully during the civil war.

Design 

Finnish changes to the original Russian Maxim included manufacturing modifications and a simplified gunsight which changed the sight measurements to the metric system. The tripod mount could fold for easier carrying and had metal carrying handles on each of the two front legs.

Edmund Driggs (pilot boat). The Edmund Driggs was a 19th-century Sandy Hook pilot boat built in 1864 at the Edward F. Williams shipyard in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. She was built to replace the pilot boat Elwood Walter. The schooner was used to pilot vessels to and from the Port of New York. She survived the Great Blizzard of 1888. In the age of steam, she was sold in 1896.

Construction and service

On February 27, 1864, pilot boat Edmund Driggs, No. 7 was launched from the Edward F. Williams shipyard in Greenpoint, Brooklyn as the replacement for the Elwood Walter No. 7. The new pilot boat took her trial trip on March 5, 1864, with Captain Augustus H. Van Pelt in command. He took her down the New York harbor to the Sandy Hook Lightship and back. There were a large number of guests and pilots on board. She was assigned to the following pilots: Richard Bowen, James H. Tenure, Jacob Vanderbilt, Edward Hilliker, John W. Murray, and Captain Augustus H. Van Pelt. The Edmund Driggs was named for Edmund Smith Driggs (1809-1889) an old Williamsburg, Brooklyn resident and president of the village of Williamsburg in 1850. Captain William M. Qualey, was also attached to the Edmund Driggs for many years.

The Edmund Driggs was registered as a pilot Schooner with the Record of American and Foreign Shipping from 1876 to 1900. Her ship master was Captain A. Bourne; her owners were N. Y. Pilots; built in 1864 at New York; and her hailing port was the Port of New York. Her dimensions were 69.9 ft. in length; 18.6 ft. breadth of beam; 7.6 ft. depth of hold; and 42-tons Tonnage.

The Edmund Driggs, No. 7 went ashore near the Upper Bay, in the Great Blizzard of 1888 but survived the storm with no casualties.

On March 27, 1889, the Edmund Driggs brought into Cape May a life boat and wreckage from the gunboat Conserva, which was lost at sea near the coast of Maryland.

On July 27, 1894, a pilot on the Edmund Driggs, No. 7 boarded the French man-of-war Huzzard outside the Sandy Hook bar in New Jersey. She was flying at her bow the blue peter flag, signifying that she wanted a pilot.

End of service

On February 1, 1896, in the age of steam and electricity, the New York Pilots discarded sixteen sailboats and moved them to the Erie Basin in Brooklyn. They were replaced with steam pilot boats. The Edmund Driggs was sold for $3,500.
