34039 Boscastle WC class

Here is a view of the front of the boiler. We need to buy 112 small tubes, 32 large tubes and 32 superheater elements (edit!).....plus a few more stays etc!

 

Remind me @Flying Phil , does Boscastle now have one of the new inner fireboxes in situ? I'm a bit rusty, excuse the pun, on what work has been undertaken away from the GCR?

 

Hi Rob
Yes it does have a new inner firebox and syphons. Much of the sides of the outer firebox are new and the rear of the firebox. There is still some work to do though, before re-tubing.

 

Aren’t large tubes and superheater flue tubes the same thing? Do you mean elements for one of the 32’s?

 

Quite correct Steve...touch of brain fade..... now edited.
