Excerpt from The Compound Locomotive, Vol. 12: Supplement to the Science of Railways Note - In regard to the merits of the compound cylinder as compared with the single-expansion, I do not desire nor profess to express any opinion. I merely wish to describe the compound cylinder in what follows, and, if in some places preference seems to be expressed, it is the claim of builders and not mine. Those who use locomotives must themselves be the judges of the respective merits of single-expansion and compound cylinders and of the particular pattern they want. In view of the fact that the Compound Locomotive is of comparatively recent introduction as compared with the single-expansion cylinder, its construction and working are less understood by those connected with the equipment department of railroads. These particulars I have, for that reason, thought it best to embody here in connection with the "Engineers' and Firemen's Manual." More and more attention is being given to the expansive use of steam in connection with the locomotive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
