Speeding up Freight Service
51

'The recent installation of Mack Tractors •and
Lapeer Trailers by the Dominion Transport Com-
pany Limited, for the transfer of Lc.1. freight be-
• tween the Canadian Pacific Place Viger freight sheds
and their outlying terminals in 'this city, was, de-
monstrated before E. W. Beatty, Chairrnan and Presi-
dent, and other executives of the railway outside the,
Windsor Street Station.
Mr. Beatty was specially interested in the mo -
chard= by which the trailer is tonnected up with
the tractor. • This is done by 'the simple operation
of backing the tractor slowly into the trailer. Un-
coupling is actuated from the tractor by the simple
moving of a lever. The President had these opera-
tions performed several times and expressed his ap-
preciation of their simplicity.
Coupling and uncoupling of the trailer is operated
by mewls of a mechanism known as a fifth wheel
which is bolted to the tractor frame and upon which
the front end of the trailer rides, interlocks itself
mechanically with the trailer through the use of rail-
road type double locking jaw. couplers. Brakes of
both the tractor and trailer are applied individually
and separately by the driver and are at all times
under his control. Were it possible for a trailer to
become disconnected from a tractor at any time when
,fin motion, the brakes of the formerare automatically
applied bringing it almost immediately to a stop.
Through the use of,a "Dolly" which consists of a
fifth wheel mounted on a pair of road wheels, two
or more i• attendant trailers may be attached to one
tractor thereby forming a tractor train and by so
doing much increasing the total load capacity. With
the addition • of the exitra trailer wheels the total
' weight of the vehicle and load is divided over a
greater road surface tire area, thus overcoming the
deteriorating effect of heavily loaded trucks on the
highways and city streets. •
The capacity of the trailers used is 10,000 to
• 15,000 pounds with an inside dimension of approxi -
mutely 16 feet long, 63/4 feet wide and 7 feet high.
The tractor is of the internationally known "Bull
Dog" type and its draw -bar pill is far in excess of
anything that will be required of it, but was deemed
advisable to use in view of the heavy road conditions
prevailing in Montreal during the winter months.
• While the tractor is of standard Mack design,
only the chassis is so in the case of the trailer, tile
body being built and finished in the Transport con -
pa.ny's plant in Montreal. The body is of oalt
throughout with a sheet metal covering and the whole
equipment is highly finished in dark blue with red
wheels and undergear, the standard colors •of the
corapany, making a very handsome appearance. The
centre side panels OT sliding doors of the trailer as
well as the rear doors and front panel are decorated
with the Maple Leaf and Beaver, insignia of the
Canadian Pacific Railway. The doors of the tractor
bear the same crest. The Dominion Transport Com-
pany have at present nine trailers in ciperation and
will increase this number to twelve in the next few
weeks. Similar automotive equipment has been
ordered for use in Toronto by the company.
Mack Tractors and Lapeer trailers represent the
latest and most efficient method of handling freight.
It consists of spotting one or more trailers at strate-
gic points where freight is to be picked up. When
the trailer is loaded the tractor calls for each,in
turn, taking than to their respective degtinations
under what is known as the Shuttle System. By
this method no tune is lost by full trailers waiting
to be moved, as they are operated on an hourly
schedule between each of the outlying' freight de-
pots and the central station, thereby giving the mer-
chants and manufacturers of these outlying districts
the morsanea,axyatad
deesptratehwithieetheir freight as those who
are
