The replacement of steam locomotives by diesel traction in the United States is resulting in the disappearance of water troughs, or track pans as they are styled in America. On the New York Central System, the last troughs were removed in 1955, and the Pennsylvania Railroad had only two installations, at Hawstone and Mapleton, in use at the beginning of the present year.
