Tyseley's staff busy themselves fitting out the smoke box
The blast pipe and nozzle stand on a trolley in the foreground ready to be lifted
into the smoke box
All the cladding now in place, the safety valve bonnet, whistles and feed pipe covers
are the next items to be fitted
Work continues on the front end as the outside steam pipe joints are re-made
One of the outside steam pipes now connected to the steam chest, saddle
cladding in place and the snifting valve, hidden by the steam pipe, refitted.
Inside the smoke box, the regulator box, steam pipes from the regulator box to the
header, the superheater header, outside steam pipes from the header to the steam
chest and the blastpipe have been installed
The joints on the superheater elements where they fit into the header are being cleaned
Preparation is made to install the superheater elements
Seen from the smoke box, four of the twelve superheater elements are ready to feed
into the large boiler tubes
One by one the elements are fitted to the boiler
Meanwhile, rubbing down continues in readiness for painting
