Adjusting and re-attaching boiler crinoline continues on 401 |
New piece welded in up top |
In the carriage shop, Katie gives the lubricator arm a coat of primer |
Tom stripping the steam brake... |
...and fitting the trigger and ratchet with new teeth |
Michael and Steve cut more metal for crinoline |
Stripping the drain cocks to replace worn pins, the rod on the right in this photo is pictured below on the workbench |
Measuring the holes, as they were quite oval they are being drilled and reamed slightly larger to get a perfect circle, then a new pinned turned, made to fit |
Tom starts stripping the safety valves |
Michael turning new pins for the drain cock linkages |
First safety valve stripped, cleaned and loosely rebuilt. Ready for cold annual exam |
