SMS Rail 9 Test Fire
Просмотров 6 тыс.3 года назад
SMS 9, (Ex New Hope and Ivyland, Exx Virginia Blue Ridge, Nee U.S. Army) has not been under steam since 1981. Restoration was started by the New Hope and Ivyland in 1992 but stopped as funding ran out. Now the same crew is finishing the project after being bought by SMS Rail in southern New Jersey. This was the first steam test of the boiler with new firebox, throttle, tubes, and many other par...
SMS 9 Steam Locomotive Restoration: Tapping for staybolts

A couple of clips using a pneumatic drill to tap threads for staybolts on the side sheet. Former New Hope and Ivyland 9 now has a totally new firebox (on the inside). Search for the facebook group SMS#9 which we fairly regularly update.
SMS 9 Steam Locomotive Restoration: Hammering Stay Bolts
Просмотров 6454 года назад
Some clips of hammering staybolts (including myself in the last clip) which does in fact kill your arms. The idea is to smash the center, work around the outside then smash the center more. Writings say to have an expansion of 0 but it takes quite a bit of force to get it to lock in. The material gotten at first for the back head was a bit stronger and took more to get it properly hammered in. ...

    In the second scene, we stopped to protect Lower Mountain Road, but when the flagman got off the engine, he stepped into a bees nest and was stung. He came back to the train where my mom (Joan) treated him with some first aid, lots of stings. My dad, (Bill Houser) was trying to tell (Bob Rule, shooting video) to look out for them. In the third scene, at Lahaska, the frog in the south switch of the runaround was cracked, so there was 5mph restriction over it, hense going slow and watching out.

    After seeing these locomotives in the museum and then this, it’s a shame they’ll most likely never see the rails under their own power again. Honestly if I won the lottery I would gladly donate more than half of it to both the PRR Museum and Strausburg to make it happen. Since 7002 (actually 8063) and 1223 are more than fast enough to pull such a train down the mainline. If given enough room to get up to speed. Imagine you’re in Philadelphia driving to the airport or whatever and you see a double header steam train heading the same way. Though I think 460 and 7002 are more suited to mainline excursions because of the sheer speeds they can achieve since the E6 and E2 classes were known to go over 100MPH easily. Either way the locomotives will always be a part of history for the PRR and will always be part of Strausburg. Maybe one day we’ll see these two under steam again to join the plausible growing Strausburg fleet.

      Alligator clips to the wheels that pickup current will do the trick. You can connect the clips to the tender wheels, drawbar, frame, or other places where there is bare metal.
