I think I have one for a slide valve, but will have to check.

I have a boiler drawing for a BS 10ton, thats with a round top boiler NOT the belpair type.

Obtained it from Lincoln Archive some years ago, know they should have both styles.

Just to give you guys a clue. My guess is that it is for 9103

Hedd, you must have a crystal ball !!!!!

Indeed the drawings are required for 9103; the boiler, box etc. has been condemed and so am dismantling the engine to achieve the objective.

Out of interest, how long should it take to completely strip it down to 'the bones' bearing in mind no machines to assist (forklifts and the like) and all nuts/bolts undone with hand tools ???

I've just read the previous thread... Alston?!!!!!

Having spent a great deal of time in (or rather, under) that part of the world, I'd love to know where!

Is it the roller that actually lives a bloomin' good walk away from Alston over at the top end of Weardale, umm, St John's Chapel way is it? I can't remember exactly which village now!

I'm not interested in an exact address, feel free to PM me with just the general area if you'd prefer. I nearly went up to Alston/Nenthead for the day on Saturday (but was lazy & didn't).
