Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Westinghouse Companies Exhibits at the International Railway Congress, Washington, 1905 Additional special parts on the locomotive - one slide valve feed valve; one feed valve pipe bracket; one reversing cock; two high-speed reducing valves - provide a simple means of cutting of} the high-speed pressure so that trains which include cars not equipped with the automatic reducing valve may be run under conditions of ordinary service, or temporary provision may be made for the Operation of such cars at high speeds by screwing into the oiling hole of the cylinder head on each car a special safety valve which may be removed at will. The entire high-speed brake apparatus, as exhibited at Washington, is an interesting example of the Westinghouse Air Brake Company's well-known policy of harmonizing all its improved devices with equipment already in service, by simple and efiective attachments to former standards.
