Work Session - 2/24/10


Dick Clark is lending a hand as Rick tries to get a spring to snap in place with all the brake rigging installed. Dick deep in concentration trying to get the remaining @#$@%&@ springs in place.
Problem number 1, the brake cylinders we ordered are too long for the replacement of the originals. Back to the drawing board. The underside of the Park engines' rear truck with the chain removed.
Another view of the truck and the gear sprockets, the red clamp is to keep the engine from rolling off the lift. A view of the front truck showing the muffler and the top pipe on the hydraulic motor we replaced.
Lew Fowler helping Frank Foti tear down his engine to change the throttle valve in the smokebox. Frank trying to get at the bolts holding the smokebox to the boiler so the boiler can be pulled back.
All Bill Deptowicz suggested was that since Frank was taking East Wind apart that he might as well install a gasoline engine in the cab and forget the steam......I think he took offense and tried to hang me.
