the Locomotive" to American tank engines, I thought that it might interest your readers to see a typical British suburban traffic locomotive, and have accordingly sent you a photo of Great North of Scotland Railway engine No. 90, one of a class of the largest and handsomest tank engines running in Britain. Designed by Mr. Johnstone, the late locomotive superintendent, their dimensions are: Driving wheels (diameter), 5 feet; cylinders, 17½ x 26 inches; heating surface, 1,207 square feet; pressure, 165 pounds per square inch; capacity of tank, 1,200 gallons; water and engine weigh 53 tons 15 cwt. (2,240 pounds per ton). These engines handle the heavy suburban traffic on Deeside. and Aberdeen to Dyce, over heavy gradients.
Builders, Neilson & Co., Glasgow.
Trusting that photo reaches you in safety and that you consider it of sufficient interest to illustrate, remain,
