A streamlined schoolhouse or

tire Great Northern Railway sys
tem giving the biennial rules ex
amination to 9.000 transportation
employes. This unusual rati car

uary 19 and 20.
The main section of the 82-foot
car is a theater-type auditorium
seating 60 persons. Dominating
the platform end of the auditor
ium Is a push button signal panel
board on which the examiner can
display all of the various signal
indications found in railway opera
tions. The auditorium Is also
equipped with an opaque projec
