MONTREAL,

R.
C
Vaughan,
chairman
and
president,
Canadian
National
Railways,
yesterday
took
over
locomotive
6235
as
the
first
of
30
on
-order
for-the.
National
system
and
required
for
wartime
traffic.
The.
others
will
follow
as
quickly
as
they
can
be
delivered
by
the
Montreal
locomotive
works
and
as
each
one
is
received
It
will
Immediately
go
into
service.
These,
new
engines
are
up
to
date
examples
of
the
northern
type
developed
by
Canadian
National
engineers
and
especially
adapted
to
system
requirements.
They
are
dual
purpose
locomotives,
being
available
for
both
freight
and
passenger
service..
A
wartime
substitution
Is
that
the
bells
of
these
new
locomotives
are
of
steel
plate,
made
at
the
Canadian
National
Railways
Montreal
shops.
Previously
engine
bells
were
cast
of
bronze
but
war
priorities
made
that
metal
scarce
and
the
"railway-men
produced
a
bell
made
of
steel
plate
Instead.
The
30
new
locomotives
follow
closely
the
principles
of
the
original
6200's
with
modifications
suggested
after
service
which
has
proven
the
soundness
of
the
design.
The
new
lot
have
the
sand
boxes
and
the
steam
dome
combined
to
suggest
streamlining.
The
total
weight
of
engine
and

is
677,890

The

length
Is

The
engine
taken
over
yesterday
will
be

In
by

a

to
Drockville,

and,
when
the

Is

it
