" ' When a new engine Is taken Into a ahop It Is turned over td a mechanic whose duty it la to fit It up and make all connections and adjustmenta of the in terior mechanism. Thia completed, the engine Is turned over to a fireman, who steams It up and blows it off In order to remove any grease that might have accumulated in the boiler or any auch foreign substances aa might cause a boiler to "foam" while In service. The engine is then turned over to an engi neer, whose duty It Is to "break" It in The engine is steamed up again, and if it will run It Is taken for a little try out about the yard. - Tha science of locomotive building haa bean developed to auch a fine point that there is little danger now of an engine "bucking" on lta firat trial. The main feature In the teat is to see that there is no heating In the Journals or rod , brassea If there ia no heating the engine Is run about the yards for about naif a day and toe ateam la again blown from tha boiler. .The engine is then steamed up and Taken ror a long run on tne main line. If during thia test there are no capers out the engine ia sent out for its firat trip with about 600 tons to draw. If It runs all right the tonnage Is gradually increased to 960 tone. The tonnage de- rends greatly upon tne sise or the en , sine. : The average engine of today will draw about 960 tons on a mountainous . road and from 1.200 to 1,600 tons over a level haul. The teat speed Is from one to Z0 miles an nour. . Heating la one of the principal dls eases of an engine and It la this feature 1 the engineer looks to more than any i thing else. The mechanical sense of the engineer ts ao developed that be can de . tect the least aeiect snout bis engine. - John Miller, who is the "locomotive Duster for the Nashville, Cnattanooga ft St Louis Railroad company, breaks on an average 20 engines a month.
