The engine has all of the latest improved appliances and is quite an artistic piece of workmanship from a mechanical point of view. The shafting is not all in place yet so the elevator is not being used and probably won't be used on the work ot finishing the filling of the houses. The elevator is quite an interesting piece of mechanism which handles the cakes rif ice up on very much the same principle that an enormous hand would. When the machinery is all in place the ice can be handled by means of the elevator in a very much briefer space of time than by the old method. The labor of icing trains will be very much lessened.
