Major Milestone Acheived - 9 April 2016

                    MAJOR MILESTONE REACHED

Hydrostatic Boiler Pressure at Normal Operating Point

Today we passed a major milestone with the boiler being hydrostatically tested in the presence of the boiler inspector. The final pressure was above what the locomotive would normally operate at being 190psi, (i.e. a safety margin allowed) and the end result was that no major concerns were noted.

I would like to thank all those that have been involved on the project to date, without you we would not be where we are today. The fun now begins in putting it all back together again.!!


I will update you shortly of what we were up to between the last update and today, keep checking.
