To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Chicago & Northwestern railway now uses the Slater box front end on nearly all of their engines operating in the forest reserve regions. This front end is a big improvement over the old style known as the Master Mechanic front end. Fifteen night runs were made on engines equipped with the box front end, and several on engines equipped with the old style front end. Less sparks are thown from the stack when the box front end is used, and it is estimated that less than five per cent of the spa...rks are alive when they strike the ground. They are nearly all self cleaners while the old style are not, but the engine crews state that they are harder to steam with than the old style and that they use considerably more fuel. The Qreat Northern railway has experimented during 1912 with a new spark arrester which is known as the Cannon or Conical front end. Four night runs were made on engines equipped with this arrester and one night was also spent in the tower at Saunders, Wis., watching 25 engines which passed.
