#aiac ,mr4 ,f4 ,w4 ,chriswell1 ,chief ,engineer1 ,seattle ,car ,foundry ,co41 ,seattle1 ,washington ,dear ,sir3 ,mr4 ,horton our ,secretary has requested me to write you of our experience with the connected logging trucks which we have been using for the last three or four years4 ,in a general way ,i might classify this under two heads1 construction and operation4 ,regards to construction of these cars will say1 while they are seemingly light1 we have found them very strong1 and more serviceable in our logging than flat cars which we had previously used and are still using4 ,the air equipment as arranged in these cars is very well protected1 and we have experienced practically no trouble whatsoever from breakage4 ,due to the construction of these cars with their three sills as the only woodwork1 we have found the cost of maintenance very little1 perhaps due to a certain extent to the accessibility of the parts1 which permit of a thorough inspection by simply walking past the car4 ,in operating1 we have found these cars exceptionally adapted to the hauling of logs1 and during our four years experience do not recall an instance where the load has been spilled due to any fault of the bunk or blocks4 ,our cars1 of which we have twenty-four in operation1 are built on twenty-four foot truck centers with nine and ten foot bunks1 and during the last year and a half we have lost but one log except through derailment4 ,we find that these cars seemingly ride easier than the seven flat cars which we have in service1 permit of a larger load and carry their loads to better advantage4 ,these cars are easily loaded1 and it is not uncommon that we haul nine and ten thousand feet to the car4 ,our loads will average between seven and eight thousand feet per car4 ,all of the trainmen who have worked on these cars1 and the loaders in the woods like them very much4 ,the fact that they are easy to load leads the loaders to put on a good load on them and in a careful manner1 and in an all around way will consider them very much superior to the flat cars we are using1 being seven in number of the standard logging type4 ,any further information which ,i may be able to give you and which you may desire1 will be furnished with pleasure upon request4 ,very truly yours1 ,,geo4 ,n4 ,,peck1 ,general ,superintendent ,this ,letter is ,typical of ,dozens ,we ,have ,received

advantages4 ,the most economic distribution of metal is made possible1 and greatest strength with least weight is the result4 ,in a built-up frame there is always some weak point which is usually where the parts are bolted together4 ,bolts become loose and nuts are lost4 ,a comparison of the ,skookum ,chief with any other truck cannot fail to show clearly its advantages in this respect4 ,the ,side ,frame1 ,end ,frame1 ,draft ,beams and ,bolster being in ,,one ,,piece eliminates possibility of weakness where these parts are usually joined by bolts1 and the sections of the various parts are so well proportioned that nothing short of a serious wreck could cause failure4 ,the repairman would be almost unnecessary and the ,truck would always be in commission1 making it possible to handle

,passenger ,truck ,frame4 ,wherever safety is required together with lightness and durability1 ,cast ,steel has been introduced4 ,following this modern plan we have constructed the ,rainier ,all ,cast ,steel ,truck of eight pieces where ordinarily several hundred are used4 ,each ,side ,frame is in one piece taking the place of ,top ,arch ,bar1 ,inverted ,arch ,bar1 ,tie ,bar1 ,heel ,brace1 ,truck

,gussets1 ,brake ,staff ,brackets1 and the numerous ,bolts necessary to tie these parts together4 ,the ,draft ,beams are each in one piece1 taking the place of ,draft ,timber1 ,draft ,lugs1 and the ,bolts required to anchor them4 ,the use of ,cast ,steel permits of the most economic distribution of the metal1 and the ,rainier ,truck is an example of what can be accomplished4 ,the ,bolster and ,bunk are similar to those used in the ,hercules ,trucks4 ,springs are located under the ,bolster to absorb shocks which would otherwise be transferred directly to the ,truck ,frame4 ,the ,springs over the ,journal ,boxes provide additional protection from shocks and also permit the wheels to hold the rails on an uneven track or at low joints4 ,brake ,beams are hung between the wheels and kept high enough to protect them in case of derailment4 ,the equipment includes ,automatic ,couplers to ,couple with ,standard ,equipment1 #cc inches above rail1 and #cc inch ,chilled ,cast ,iron ,wheels

piece1 thus reducing the number of parts and increasing the strength of the truck1 a practice originated by us1 on logging trucks and which is being widely adapted by leading railroads on standard equipment4 ,this truck is designed for extreme conditions where the timber is very large and is taken out in long lengths and where load at times will total from #dj to #fj tons4 ,from the fact that ,cast ,steel is substituted for structural design the expense of repair parts is practically eliminated while the factor of safety is sufficient to meet all demands unless cars meet with a wreck4 ,attention is called to the method of holding the bunk in place by means of a bunk bracket which clamps in position on the half turn4 ,the bunk is prevented from slipping out of position by ,bunk ,stops which can be seen on the side frames4 ,this truck is designed for extreme strength and rigidity4 ,it is certain to become one of our most popular types4 ,both structurally and in appearance it

simple mathematical problem4 ,compare this #d-;,bunk ,car with a ,flat ,car with four bunks of the same capacity and note the saving4 ,the percentage of dead weight to log capacity is #cj as compared to #cf for the flat car or a car cost per thousand feet logs of #gh4ej as compared to #ic4ej for flat car4 ,this means a saving of #bj on the haul back of empty cars and nearly #bj in first cost4 ,where a large percentage of logs from #ab to #bj feet are handled1 this ,quadruple ,bunk car has a great advantage over any other type4 ,the construction is such that the entire load can be carried

with trip stakes4 ,the stakes are released or tripped from the safety side of car4 ,the other difference is that there is a #aj #aj in4 center sill between the two main sills which extends from draft rig to draft rig4 ,where short length logs are handled four bunks must be provided in order to permit of thirty and forty ton loads4 ,this car meets these conditions perfectly4 ,small cars of twenty

shifting of the load1 and the hollow channel for the protection of the locking mechanism4 ,this type has been copied by designers of all modern ,bunks since our first model was introduced five years ago1 and this fact is evidence of the merit of the design4 ,the offset foot of the upright leg of the ,chock resting upon the sloping floor of the ,bunk makes it easily held in position but impossible to prevent its disappearing when released4 ,unlocking the ,chock is simple and easy and there are no sliding surfaces to wear away4 ,the locking bar is held by a center crank and locks on the dead

specially designed for the ,yosemite ,valley ,lumber ,co4 to operate on an incline #h1jjj feet long1 with a maximum grade of #gh1 the rise in feet from the foot of the incline to the top being #c1ajj feet1 the incline being in a vertical plane1 but following the general slope of the mountain side and changing from one slope to another4 ,the cars are let down the incline by means of #a in4 wire rope1 attached to a donkey engine4 ,this car was designed to meet these conditions1 and is provided with a steel backbone1 reinforced at the ends forward of bolsters to provide for the extreme angle of cable pull from a horizontal line and at the down hill end to support the bulkhead1 which is provided to keep the logs from shifting4 ,the vertical bulkhead posts are riveted to the steel backbone4 ,at the cable end a special combination buffer and cable casting of cast steel is secured to the backbone by means of gusset plates1 and is also riveted to end sill4 ,the backbone is built up of steel plates and angles in the form of a box girder1 of the fish belly type4 ,cross bearers are located intermediate of the bolsters1 and are sufficiently strong to carry the loads from the side sills to the center construction4 ,experience has proved that for logging cars1 steel is unsuited for use in side sills1 as continual shocks1 resulting from discharging the load1 cause their failure4 ,for this reason red fir side sills were introduced in this car1 making the underframe a composite construction of steel and timber4 ,the side sills being supported at four points1 viz43 at bolsters and cross bearers1 no trouble has been experienced from failure of these sills4 ,in case of failure1 they are readily replaced1 and the work can readily be done at any camp4 ,the bulkhead is constructed with a steel frame1 with planking for the bulkhead proper1 so that in case blocking is necessary to fill out between the log and the ,bulkhead1 this blocking can be nailed to the bulkhead to secure it in place1 the object being to provide against the possibility of the log starting to shift4 ,the cable casting is made with a machine-fit pin to engage the shackle on the cable and place the pin in positive shear4 ,the cars were equipped with four ,hercules ,bunks1 to provide for short or long logs4 ,the trucks are of the ,diamond ,arch ,bar type1 with cast steel bolsters4 ,the bolsters are of special design1 with hemispherical center bearing1 to take care of the rock of the trucks in passing over the sharp1 vertical curves4 ,axles with #dh in4 journals1 and #cc in4 chilled cast iron wheels

the truck in case the car is derailed and rolls down an embankment permitting the two parts to be handled with little difficulty4 ,the angle of dump is ample to clear the load and the door is free to swing permitting a free discharge of the load without bringing any shock upon the door1 which in the case of the door being held in a fixed position often causes an upset car and the consequent disabling of the car4 ,the door closes and locks automatically as the body is righted4 ,the truck frame is built of steel ,i-beams and channels and the drawhead is a heavy forging and fitted with draft springs4 ,one man may easily dump the loaded car and bring the body back into position4 ,the wheels are #af-;inch chilled cast iron4 ,sidenote3 ,,code ,canal ,number #aeg ,four ,yard ,two-,way

,railroad ,building ,curves ,the simplest way of designating a railroad curve is by giving the length of the radius--i4 e41 the distance from the center to the outside of the circle1 or one-half the diameter4 ,the shorter the radius the sharper the curve4 ,the length of the radius is usually stated in feet2 but ,english engineers often state the radius in chains 7one chain #ff feet74 ,the length of the radius of a railroad curve is measured to the center of the track4 ,civil engineers designate railway curves by degrees 7using the sign for degrees and for minutes1 there being #fj minutes in one degree74 ,the sharpness of the curve is determined by the degree of curve1 or the number of degrees of the central angle subtended by a chord of #ajj feet4 ,or1 in other words1 let two lines start from the center of a circle in the shape of a ,v1 so that the angle at the point of the ,v is one degree 7equivalent to #a_/cfj of a complete circle71 then1 if the two sides of the ,v are prolonged until they are #ajj feet apart1 any part of a circle made by using one of these lines for its radius is a one-degree curve4 ,the exact length of radius which with an angle of one degree has a chord of #ajj feet is found to be #e1gbi4fe feet4 ,for sake of convenience #e1gcj feet is usually taken as the radius of a one-degree curve4 ,if the angle at the point of the ,v is two degrees and the sides are prolonged until #ajj feet apart1 the length of each side is 7almost exactly7 one-half as long as when the angle is one degree1 or one-half of #e1gcjb1hfe feet4 ,for a three-degree curve the radius is one-third of #e1gcj2 for a four-degree curve one-fourth of #e1gcj2 and so on4 ,for perfect exactness the length of #ajj feet should be measured not along a straight line connecting the ends of the ,v1 but along the line of the circle of which the sides of the ,v are radii--i4 e41 the arc should be used and not the chord4 ,the difference1 however1 is so slight for any curves ordinarily used on main lines of standard gauge railroad as to be ignored in practice4 ,but for extremely sharp curves1 such as our locomotives both wide and narrow gauge are built for1 a considerable mathematical error would be involved by the use of #ajj-;foot chords and calculating the length of the radius by dividing #e1gcj by the degree of curve4 ,the ratio of this error increases with the degree of curve1 since the error is caused by neglecting the difference between the length of the chord and of the arc 7e4 g41 a #fj-;degree curve and #ajj-;foot chord mathematically compels #ajj-;feet radius instead of #ie feet2 a #ij-;degree curve and #ajj-;foot chord1 #ga;feet radius instead of #fc4f feet74 ,in practice1 however1 the formula of dividing #e1gcj by the degree of curve 7,r#egcj_/;,d7 is almost universally used1 and the mathematical error is avoided by using two #ej-;foot chords for curves ranging from #aj to #af degrees1 and four #be-;foot chords for curves ranging from #ag to #cj degrees1 and further sub-dividing for sharper curves1 since this almost exactly balances the error1 and it is also a practical necessity in laying out sharp curves to use short chords4 ,for extremely sharp curves1 or say #ajj feet radius or less1 it is usual to express the curve by feet radius rather than by degrees4 ,the table following is computed by the formula ,r#egcj_/;,d1 and fractions of feet are not taken into account4 ,,note--,the above engineers' method of designating the rate of curvature of a railway curve must not be confounded with the number of degrees of a circle occupied by the curved portion of the track2 thus a curved track making a quarter turn1 equivalent to a right angle1 will always be #ij degrees of a circle 7#cfj degrees--the whole circle7 no matter whether the curve is an easy one with a long radius or a sharp one with a short radius4 ,table ,showing ,lengths of ,radius in ,feet 7,fractions ,disregarded7 for ,curves from ,one to ,sixty ,degrees ,,degrees ,,radius

,illustration ,stretch a string1 say #bj feet long1 or longer if the curve is not a sharp one1 across the curve corresponding to the line from ,a to ,c in the diagram4 ,then measure from ,b1 the center of the line ,a ,c1 and at right angles with it1 to the rail at ,d4 ,multiply the distance ,a to ,b1 or one-half the length of the string in inches1 by itself2 measure the distance ,d to ,b in inches1 and multiply it by itself4 ,add these two products and divide the sum by twice the distance from ,b to ,d1 measured exactly in inches and fractional parts of inches4 ,this will give the radius of the curve in inches4 ,it may be more convenient to use a straight edge instead of a string4 ,care must be taken to have the ends of the string or straight edge touch the same part of the rail as is taken in measuring the distance from the center4 ,if the string touches the bottom of the rail flange at each end1 and the center measurement is made to the rail head1 the result will not be correct4 ,in practice it will be found best to make trials on different parts of the curve to allow for irregularities4 ,it is best not to measure across from one end of the curved track to the other even when the curve is so located that this is possible1 since if any portion of the straight track at either end of the curve is included the result will be incorrect4 ,this rule does not apply to curves of over one-half circle if the line is drawn connecting the two ends of the curve4 ,it is a good plan to make the measurement on the inside of the outer rail of the curve1 as this is often more convenient4 ,in this case one-half of the width of gauge should be deducted from the radius when calculated1 as the radius of the curve should be measured to the center of the track4 ,,example--,let ,a ,c be a #bj-;foot string2 half the distance1 or ,a ,b1 is then #aj feet1 or #abj inches4 ,suppose ,b ,d is found on measurement to be #c inches4 ,then #abj multiplied by #abj is #ad1djj1 and #c multiplied by #c is #i2 #ad1djj added to #i is #ad1dji1 which1 divided by twice #c1 or #f1 equals #b1dja inches1 or #bjj feet #a inches1 which is the radius of the curve4 ,a ,b plus ,b ,d ,the formula
