Boiler is a commercially built job by Cheddar, it's had recent hydraulic test with new certification issued. We've run the engine, it steams freely and water feeds all work reliably. Goes ok forwards and will link up one notch, doesn't run in reverse.
It has a variety of jobs need doing including servicing or replacement of the safety valves which accumulate, sorting out a leaky steam brake valve and rebushing coupling and connecting rods.
