Plumbing

Himself has been working on adding detail to the boiler unit of 143.


Various pipes, manifolds and whatitsnames have been bent and soldered into position but - most importantly - not before the holes for the handrail knobs were drilled.

The chimney is just resting in position for the moment but has been turned down at the top to lose a lot of the flare on the original casting.

There are also various cylinders and rods and levers which live beneath the boiler which have been attached as well.


He's been paying very careful attention to research pictures because many of the things these pipes connect into are in different places compared to sister engine 138.
