Four of these engineshave been built, and the one shown is thefirst compound locomotive built in Can- (TYade-Mark Registered.) NEW YORK, AUGUST, 1897. The boiler is designed to carry a work-ing pressure of 200 pounds, and is S3Hinches diameter at the smallest ring. Itcontains 216 tubes 2 inches diameter. Thetubes give a heating surface of 1,310square feet, the firebox 118 square feet,making a total heating surface of 1,428square feet. The grate area is 28.54 squarefeet.
