The first of the monster freight engines ,
No. 333 , came into Lincoln , Thursday at
4:50 : , from Plattsniouth where it has been
overhauled. Yesterday afternoon a num
ber of people interested in machinery
came down to the round-house to view
the giant. All the other heavy engines
looked puny beside 333 , with its huge
boiler , raised high in the air , and short
stack , which gave it a suggestion of bull
dog appearance. She was shoved onto
the turn-table and " 61 , " the diminutive
house goat engine , crept almost noise
lessly up and was coupled on. It was a
most incongruous sight. Then the goat
gave a wheeze out of its stack , butted
against 333 , slid its wheels a little , and
pushed the monster into the house. En
gine 333 started for the Wyoming divis
ion at 5:30 this morning. Three more
of these large engines are at Plattsniouth
having the ash pans they are now fitted
with , exchanged for air pans Satur
