Ebook Locomotive Testing Plant at Altoona, Penna

The original program of tests that was planned by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company to be made on the Locomotive Testing Plant at St. Louis, in 1904, included tests of one Of the Company's simple passenger locomotives of the Atlantic type with D valves* and a locomotive of this type was prepared and held in readiness for the tests, but as the time at St. Louis was not sufficient, these tests could not be carried out.
