Ice-lo-co-mo′tive.

A traction engine for running on ice; one constructed by Messrs. Neilson of Glasgow, and employed for conveying passengers and freight between St. Petersburg and Cronstadt, has two driving-wheels five feet in diameter and studded with spikes. The front part rests on a sledge, which is swiveled and may be turned by the wheel, which has an endless screw working a pinion that turns a segment rack attached to the sledbody. The cylinders are 10 inches in diameter and [1164] 22 inches stroke. The weight of the engine is 12 tons, and it attains a speed of 18 miles an hour.

1877.
