Weren't most Shays and other geared locos based on the narrow gage standard of 3"? If I am correct in that it would factor into the equation as well.Bill
So crueby, those holes in the top of the dome...are they just to let steam vent to the atmosphere should either of the pop valves go off? You are going to have a real functioning engine here before too long Bill
You have been giving that angle plate a workout crueby! I love it. Handy accessory to have for sure.Bill
That worked well, good result. I always find aluminium much easier to spell than aluminum. Hugh.
The standoffs look great crueby. That's some fiddly work too cause I know how small the chuck is . The handrail is a bit height on the boiler than I imagined but looks good also. You have done a LOT of work in 8 months!!Bill
