Having had a day or two spare before the show, it's now done,  we had it in steam for the boiler inspector a couple of weeks ago. Goes well,  it's only been steamed three times in its life, paintwork is getting a bit tatty  in places, build quality is good.\u003c\/font\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Stanier Mogul, built in 1983 by John Horsfield, a talented and prolific  builder - regular readers will remember his \u003ca href=\"\/products\/archive\/2429\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eManning  Wardle \"Taw\"\u003c\/a\u003e I had in a few years ago (which at the time was one  of the heaviest 7 1\/4 inch gauge engines I'd had in the van - it was a long,  slow haul back up from Bristol).    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilver soldered copper boiler with superheaters, working pressure 100psi,  feed by twin injectors with auxiliary hand pump in the tender - the tender vents  at the rear are actually cunningly-disguised injector water valves, which puts  them conveniently to hand. Piston valves actuated by Walschaert's gear with  screw reverser in cab. Mechanical lubricator on offside running board.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chassis has been plated out in steel underneath to increase adhesive  weight - the locomotive weighs 155 pounds without the tender.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe boiler was hydraulic tested to 200psi when new, the engine was then  steamed once using a gas burner for the initial club test. It was then stripped  and painted, since when it has been on display indoors. It was built to a high  standard, mechanically it is, obviously, in ex-works condition. Paintwork has  some marks and flaking in places although entirely presentable as-is.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHalf term this week so Sam has been in the workshop, he has cleaned the  engine and run it on air - it goes beautifully, \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ofs5qHbTK2w\u0026amp;feature=channel_page\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ethere's  a clip of it here\u003c\/a\u003e.
