FIRST MIKIDO ENGINE
SEWARD MflNWILL DR!
Ten flatcars will be required to
transport to Anchorage hte two Mika
do engines received Saturday on the
freighter Tanana.
Once the engines are assembled and
put into commission they will be capa
ble of hauling twenty full carloads
over the Alaska Railroad in either di
rection.
The first engine to be put into com
mission will take the Seward-Anchor
age run with John Rosness, now pull
ing the throttle on a freight, as en
gineer.
The addition of these two engines
will make possible the economic haul
age of coal from the Matanuska fields
to Seward, in the opinion of railroad
officials whose business it is to deal
with such matters as traction.
At the present time there is suffi
cient rolling stock on the railroad to
handle any quantity of freight which
might accrue from coal transporta
tion even up to 1,000 tons per day.
Should such a contract as is said to
have been offered in San Francisco to
Matanuska field miners actually be
consummated, it would be necessary
to add materially to the present
equipment in the way of coal cars, say
reports from headquarters which are
now considering all questions in con
nection with handling large* tonnage
if coal export becomes a reality, which
appears certain.
