Making Progress Towards Overhaul - Boiler Tube Work for Loco 2469
In this video we continue project work on Locomotive 2469. Watch how our engineers expertly prep this beautiful loco for inspection, with the hope for the possibility of overhaul. After removal of the smokebox, the boiler tubes must be slit and collapsed, ready for removal.
We thoroughly enjoy bringing you along with us as we tackle each exciting project - please feel free to like and subscribe to follow along!

    A bit late to the party, but - great video! I'm always impressed by the relatively tight tolerances that things were made to 'back in the day'. Really cool!

    These engines aren't ment to sit they need steam to give them life or they just look very bland

    Great video. Lay person gets to see the guts behind sometimes opaque terminology. I now know what a big end is! More videos please.

    Excellent video and subscribed for future videos! Have you got any plans to include any modern upgrades for the loco which wouldn’t have been fitted originally? Cheers and all the best for the restoration.

    What, no other comment so far? This has all the makings of a great series illustrating what really goes into keeping steam traction alive.

    Thank you, this is wonderful,an enthralling exposition of tapers, and forces ,much appreciated ( the slighter the taper, the greater the force it can generate, of course )

    Fascinating stuff....! I love seeing these old engines being worked on. Just watched your first 3 episodes and will look out for further updates. Great to see proper engineering being looked after as it should be, these things were built to last, and designed with maintenance in mind unlike stuff today.
