a safety device which can be installed on hand cars and motors,torevent

rear of the wheels, as shown in the illustration. These are bolted to the frame
of the car both horizontally and vertinally,
Exhaustive tests were made with a gasoline ear to which these brackets
were attaehed, at speeds varying from ten to thirty miles an hour, and it was,
clearly detaaonstrated that these brackets held the, car•r,titaet. on, the rails.
