In the accompanying engraving we give a side elevation and sectional plan of one of the engines recently supplied to the Great Northern Railway Company, by Messrs, J. Fowler and Co., Leeds, which arc specially designed for running the heavy express trains on that line of railway. These engines have recently completed the journey from King's Cross to Peterborough, a distance of seventy- seven miles, in one ho..

Other views of this engine are also given on the present and opposite pages. The engine has inside cylinders 17 in. in diameter, with 2ft. stroke, and a single pair of driving wh..

"EXPRESS LOCOMOTIVE; G. N. R.
The Great Northern Railway is so noted for its heavy and fast passenger trains that the engines employed to work those trains have a special interest for locomotive engineers. The express tralfic of the Great Northern line necessiitates the running of trains consisting of from 15 to 26 carriages from Kin..
EXPRESS LOCOMOTIVE, GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY
It is not to be supposed that the Great Northern express traffic is worked entirely by the outside-cylinder engines, which have already been illustrated in our pages, albeit Mr, Stirling’s engines with 8ft. drivers have earned a worldwide reputation. For many years inside-cylinder engines have played an important part on the line, and Mr. Stirling has found it worthwhile to perpetuate this type. Our supplement this week illustrates, through the courtesy of..
MR. IVATT’S NEWEST GREAT NORTHERN ENGINES.
By CHARLES Rous-MARTEN.
It has fallen to my lot to describe in these columns several important improvements effected or new departures taken by .Mr. H. A. Ivatt since he assumed the locomotive superintendency of the Great Northern Railway on the lamented death of his eminent predecessor, Mr. Patrick Stirling, in 1K96. I have set forth successively how, beginning with the re-building of the late Mr. Stirling’s famous single-wheelers, in such sort..
EXPRESS ENGINES FOR THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

EXPRESS PASSENGER ENGINE, NORTH BRITISH RAILWAY.
The Hawick and Border Union Railway, uniting Carlisle with Edinburgh and Glasgow, constitutes one of the heaviest roads in the world worked by high speed passenger traffic, as will be seen from the sections on page 4. One incline of 1 in 70 is, in round numbers, seven miles long without a break worth mentioning; another of nearly eight miles rises at the rate of 1 in 75; a third incline equally steep is two miles long. It will be understood that to work th..
SIX-COUPLED EXPRESS ENGINES FOR NORTH·EASTERN RAILWAY .
“For some years past, and especially since so remarkable an impetus was given to Anglo-Scottish travel by the competitive "acceleration " to Aberdeen-which we are forbidden to call a " race " of 1895, the difficulty of running to time the increasing loads has steadily grown on the North-Eastern Railway as on the Great Northern.
For not only has the number of passengers to be conveyed mounted up with surp..
