My thinking too.... I might only get my ashes thrown in the firebox....
Super that. As I'm a member I'll request that. Thanks for the info, looks like an interesting read.
Thanks for that. I haven't been a close follower of the years of Tornado's original history on the main line as I didn't contribute to its build....
Can anyone explain what was wrong with Tornado's original welded firebox/boiler which ran @ 12 years, seemingly without a problem ?

No they let em out early....to free up space.... tongue in cheek...
Agree entirely and basic skills in engineering are lacking too. I still have scrapers from my apprenticeship days and can still scrape a surface...
As a life long chartered engineer I find your statement "modern engineering is very, very difficult", hard to understand.... I still keep my hand...
Thanks for that I'll have to run my eye over it
