Weeden model 14 repair

(1/1)

Doc:
This is the first steam up of the 5th Weeden engine in my collection to get repaired and running again. I have 3 more in need of repair. This one was an easy rebuild new water level sight glass and a sight glass fitting boiler bands a new whistle and new pressure relief valve. Plus I soldered up a 4 flame burner for it.

I'm about to start up on my V8 engine build again I put ti away for the summer so this will be the last Weeden for this year to be rebuilt.
