    BR Standard class 6 No. 72010 'Hengist' and Clan Discussion Thread

    My own idea would have been to ream the hole to a size to suit the bolt, so I raised a query with one of the foremen at Bridgnorth yesterday and...

    Boiler dimensions/ratios

    I'll draw attention to my first sentence, but the steam and water temperatures will not be constant throughout the boiler as convection currents...

    A question about G.W.R. engines

    The LNWR also used a crosshead driven vacuum pump to maintain vacuum. This was a result of an agreement between the LNWR and GWR allowing the...

    Brighton Atlantic: 32424 Beachy Head

    Yes, it is what I meant to say. There is a lot of infrastructure with rail anyway, but the railways / tramways felt that the additional...

    Brighton Atlantic: 32424 Beachy Head

    That doesn't explain trams. Steel wheels on steel rails have a far lower rolling resistance than rubber on asphalt so far more fuel efficient. A...

    Royal Scot middle big ends.

    In practice they made little difference to rolling resistance, it was reduced maintenance which was the incentive, on the LMS at least, along with...

    You're welcome. I'm in a rather privileged position with the 8F Society Archive, including all the Engine Record Cards!

    Sorry, no: all 8Fs were built and ran with Stanier 4000 gallon tenders. It was, I think, 1958 when the decision to swop these tenders from 8Fs for...

    BR Standard locos

    The bearings were not split and this did cause problems in assembling the built up parts of the axle. The female parts were heated to give...

    BR Standard locos

    Yes, but that doesn't mean they always went back on their original engine, though they would usually have done so. In England anyway; Scotland was...

    Do you mean temperature there, Tom? My understanding of superheat is that by raising the temperature of the steam and water vapour, the liquid...

    LMS consituent engines set aside for preservation but later scrapped.

    I believe you're thinking of a low interest Government loan scheme, which I think started in the second half of the 1930s. I've seen references to...

    LMS consituent engines set aside for preservation but later scrapped.

    There's a bit of a difference between preservation, especially prior to 1960, and new build. Prior to that date, locos would be saved for their...
