The high-pressure cylinder bore has been increased i in., making it 4 in., and the low-pressure also increased A in., making it 6 in. bore. The same length of stroke, viz. 6 in., is retained. The ratios of gearing between the engine and road wheels are 19'4 and 11 to 1, giving speeds of 2 9 and 5-1 miles per hour with engine running at its normal speed of 450 revolutions per minute. Fig. 48 shows a plan of the engine and gearing. The valves are of the flat balanced pattern working on renewable faces.

The second-motion shaft is in reality a fixed steel tube with the clutch operating rod working in the hollow. The compensating shaft is clearly shown in Fig. 49. It will be noticed that the main bearings are non-adjustable. The third axle consists of a "Mannesman " tube with practically solid ends. The rear axle has bearings 11 in. long and 3 i in. in diameter, the diameter of the axle beyond the bearings being 4 in. The boiler, brakes, and steering gear are the same design as on the smaller wagon.

Excerpt from Modern Steam Road Wagons In designing these vehicles, not only is it absolutely necessary that the strains should be properly distributed, combining the lightest possible construction with the greatest strength, but that simplicity - inasmuch as we are dealing with a commercial article - must be ever kept in View. The two most difficult problems which have been encountered are, undoubtedly, to design a fitting boiler and proper road wheels.

Steam wagons steam engines that carry goods on the roads developed considerably later than traction engines and steam rollers, which had started to appear in the mid 1860s. This book tells the story of steam wagons from the earliest designs through to the last models. It explains how they worked and what they did. An informative text is combined with a selection of photographs to illustrate steam wagons both at work in their heyday in the early twentieth century and in action more recently in the period in which they have become valued historical artefacts.
