Hi,
Can or will any owners of the above locos,help with some details of boiler and firebox?
Alas,my meagre earnings wont allow me to purchase one,and therefore will need to make one.I like the fact that the footplate is clear of a great big burner assy sticking out the back of the boiler !
Therefore,if any kind owner could help with some data,I would be much oblidged.
ie; dimensions of fire box,number and diameter of tubes in the boiler?
if said tubes have any crosspipes in them ? is the firebox surrounded by water or just the sides or just the back plate ? the above will be gas fired.
Any pictures of unit would also be very handy.
Many thanks,Billw2004(w.watson@blueyonder.co.uk)
