Details of high-pressure, two-pressure locomotives built by Henschel and Sohn to carry out invention of Schmidt; feature of this engine is use of boiler which generates steam at two pressures, one in neighborhood of 900 lb. and other of 200 lb.; high-pressure steam, which is generated by Perkins closed-circuit method, is used in single high-pressure cylinder, and, on exhausting, is mixed with low-pressure steam and admitted to two outside cylinders; includes tabulated results of road tests.
