B. standards, has recently been designed and is be-ing manufactured by the Buffalo Brake Beam Company. Thishead has been designed to fill the difficult requirements of modernheavy equipment and high speed, and can be considered as adistinct step in the direction of increased safety and economy. The illustration shows the construction very clearly. The head. is shown as attached to a rolled steel brake beam, furnished bythe same company, to which it is securely riveted. Riveted to thehead proper is a removable face plate which can be renewed atsmall cost in case it should become worn by contact with thewheel through the breaking or wearing of a shoe, thus eliminat-ing the usual necessity of scrapping the whole head. One featuretending to increased safety, which is given by a head of thisdesign, is the fact that there are no key lugs such as are usuallyfound on malleable iron heads, which have been known to breakand permit the shoe to drop to the track, with very serious con-sequences. In this shoe the key has also been given a muchgreater bearing surface than is usually provided. Power of Hand Brakes.—Hand brakes which will work inharmony with the air brakes should be used on all equipment, and the power exerted by the hand brake be not less than 40 percent, of the light weight of car, nor more
