, means that the weight of the boiler must be that much less. In other xaords, the bigger the ivheels are, the lighter and smaller must be the boiler. The problem which the locomotive designer, then, has to con- sider and determine, is the sum of the advantages which will result from an increase in the size of the wheels, and a diminution of that of the boiler, or vice versa. It may be said that no common agree- ment with reference to the size cf loco- motive wheels has ever been reached by loc...omotive engineers. Practice seems to vacillate : at one time wheels as large as 10, and we believe 12, feet in diameter were employed, but these excessively lai'ge sizes have now been abandoned. At present American practice seems to incline toward larger sizes.
