Text Appearing Before Image:
the development of flashsteam model locomotives. With the exception of the very small model L. & N. W. Experi-ment loco which had only one coil, and a methylated vaporisingburner, the boilers had longitudinal coils running the full lengthof the boiler, and were fired by means of a Carson Primus typeburner. The pressure container was a drum inside the tender, andwas surrounded by water in the usual square or oblong tank. Thiswater fed the geared pump, which was driven from the secondtender axle. The most successful of this type was a %-inch-scale 4-4-0 Cale-donian, built for Sir Henry Lopes. Mr. Carson always declaredthat this engine was the fastest he had ever seen, and during testshe carried out, on Sir Henrys track, never dared to give themodel more than half-throttle, no matter what load the enginewas hauling. Mr. Wardlaw, of New York, and a M. E. Exhibition Cham-pionship Cup Holder, has a similar locomotive which, I believe,is destined for exhibition in some museum in U. S. A.
Text Appearing After Image:
