    Thanks Tom very interesting I liked the way you made up the wet and dry headers nice and compact.

    The new superheater should reduce fuel and water consumption since the steam's energy to the cylinders has increased. But without careful records, it's more theoretical. It's still a great improvement and project. My congratulations to you on how you engineered and built it. Your engine is a fine running locomotive.

      Many thanks. It was a nice little project, haven’t created much recently as I’ve been doing a lot of repairs, so was nice to have a quick one like that.

    A really nice job.
    Out of curiosity: Was the superheater steamtight on the first attempt, or did you have to re-weld a few places?

      To be honest I didn’t have time to test it out, but it seems to be good, I’m going to remove them to do a proper hydraulic test on them over the winter, I’ve got another mod in mind too which I can demonstrate easier if I take them out too…
