T the time of their completion, the
A locomotives used for hauling the
long, heavy coal and other trains over
the steep railroad grades In the rnoun
tains of Virginia wers the most pow
erful In the world.
The enormous size, weight and pow
er of these leviathans of the* rail are
positively astounding.
Each engine
(and tender) weighs almost 900,000
pounds, Is considerably more than 100
feet In length, has 20 driving wheels,
Is fired by machinery, exerts a
straightaway pull of 176,000 pounds
and, ’tls said, will haul any load that
the coupling pin will hold.
The boilers of these giants on wheels
are about 9% feet In diameter. Each
boiler contains 381 two and a quarter-
inch tubes, which, placed end to end.
would reach almost two miles; also
seventy 6H-lnch flues, having a total
length of more than a quarter of a
mile. The Are boxes are 16 feet loug
and 9 feet wide.
The shipment of these large locomo
tives from the point of construction
to the point of service presented an
unusually peculiar and difficult prob
lem requiring great care and attention,
for the reason that the tracks and
bridges of the various railroads over
which they had to move were not, In
all cases, built to withstand such tre
mendous weights. They were shipped
in a partially knocked-down condition
and approximately two weeks were re
quired to move them from Schenectady,
N. Y., to Princeton, W. Va.
Three
cars were necessary to carry the loose
and detached parts belonging to each
locomotive.
