Enormous Loss in Coal Consumption Reported for 1906 Locomotives
Ninety million tons of coal were used by about 1,000 U S locomotives in 1906, costing railroads roughly 170.6 million dollars. A Geological Survey study led by W F M Goss found heat losses through exhaust gases and cinders, unburned fuel in ashes, and incomplete combustion, with further losses in starting and moving trains. Improvements in grate design fuel preparation and firing could substantially reduce losses over time.
