5918 - not yet in steam...
Posted: 13 Feb 2012, 17:08
For various reasons beyond our control the stationary boiler was not fired up today, so we were not able to test steam 5918. We have been promised that it will happen tomorrow...
In the meantime we had another look in the smokebox and found some ominous discolourations and apparent distortion on three of the superheater elements.
