New Use for Old Locomotives.

A machinery firm In Philadelphia had to replace its boilers with new ' ones of greater capacity, and the problem arose of how to make the change without interrupting operation, says Power. They rented two superannuated locomotives, connected them to the main steam lines of the plant and got up steam. They did service until the new boilers were in place.
