The single pop-type safety valve works reliably, hand and axle pumps are both effective. The injector - a recent addition - proved decorative rather than functional...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    On test the engine steamed freely, maintaining pressure and water level with \"little and often\" firing and regular top ups from the axle pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Disposing at the end of the day, the rear cab sheet lifts off and centre footplate removes by undoing a single screw, allowing access to the blowdown valve.
