Text Appearing Before Image:
twoother valves are located in front of the cab. The front truck has astraight pin and its frame has a direct lateral movement. On eachside of the pin are two elliptical springs with short camber thrust pinspermitting the necessary displacement. The side supports beneaththe cylinder casting have their spherical surfaces turned upward in-stead of, as usual, the reverse. Such a truck might be consideredstiff in vertical action as compared to those having a swing frame andno side rests, yei, as an instance to the contrary, it may be mentionedthat once when one of these engines was proceeding at 50 miles perhour down-grade, a front truck tire flew off, and after the accidenthad been signaled to the engineman by a platelayer it was found thata considerable distance had been run upon the wheel rim without anyparticular damage to any other part. The spring hanging on the driving wheels is by means of plate andspiral springs, and equalising levers are employed between the twopairs of wheels.
