Text Appearing Before Image:
into the old boxes. New shoes andwedges are put up to avoid lining the old ones, and, in oneextreme case, a new four guide crosshead was applied to avoidthirty minutes lathe work on the old one. Examples of thesepractices are not confined to any one system, but have beenobserved on large roads all over the country. Such work canbe eliminated by careful supervision and by impressing on theforeman the cost of each article. It is obvious that the central repair and manufacturing plantwill be an economy only when standards for parts and for erect-ing are adopted and strictly adhered to, when engines are re-quired to make a specific mileage, when careful inspection re-ports precede an engine to the shop, when the shop is notifiedin advance when such engines will be shopped, and when thewaste of material is eliminated. The last clause should be un-derstood to include stopping the practice of robbing an enginebefore it is sent to the central shop. 182 AMERICAN ENGINEER AND RAILROAD JOURNAL.
