Can Pull Trains Without Cylinders or Pistons.. One of the earliest steam loco motives, invented by William Hedley for carrying coal not so much to as f; om around Newcastle, Eagl:tud, was called the "Putting pill,." And Pot over a century the familiar steam 1 locomotive has been known to the Itory young as a "clroo-choo." The "puff' 'or "shoo" is due to the necessity for exhausting the used .learn after it has driven the piston down the cylinder, the piston, In turn, Leing attached to the connecting rods which rotate the locomotive', dery ing wheels. A. radically new type of otenno• Live has recently been deurA' and built which does away, at one Pell ' swoop. with cylinders, pistons and the characteristic "choo-chop" eouu4. The new locomotive uti'_e:ea the power of steam by means of special hcat-treated reduction gems• on two , centre driving axles. These gears to the drive wheels, operating in an o:l ba'h, deliver more than 95 per cent. of the power developed by the steam ttubine on the locomotive—four co turbine. There are eight wheals on the locomotive — four on each sule — the centre two of each sat receiving the turbine power di- rectly and transmitting the power t.: ' the front and rear drive wheels through connecting rods. r"he power is delivered 'smoothly by quietly, free from the pulsations cuaracteristic of the piston -typo i drive, - The shaft of the turbine i3 re- I taled by the pressure of jets of steam against the vanes of the htrbtne wheel at high speed, necessitating the � iese of reduction gears for the trans• mission of the power to the drive wheels of the l000motive at spends compatible with safe train operation. The new turbine locomotive is re- po^ted to be capable of drawing a i full-length passenger train at a speed of 100 miles per hour and Of draw Mg high-prlority freight strings at equally dazzling speeds, Its eon- 1 s'ruction and operation are said to be much simpler than the eon .en, 1 tional l000rn(odrive, whose i'ocipm'at- ing parts It has eltniineted.
