Description:
Abstract:

This invention relates to traction engines and has special reference to tenders for the same, the object being to provide simple and convenient means for managing the tender in backing up any distance, turning around so as to get into line for work, or to run in any direction, backward or forward from the place occupied, without detaching the same, and also to cause it to adjust itself to unevenness of the ground over which it may travel or upon which it may stand.

Claim:

The combination with a tender for a traction engine of a rocking bolster having casters on opposite ends thereof.
