The purpose of this section is to show what our members are doing.

This shows building of a boiler for a 7.25in. gauge “Dolgoch” by Adrian Morley and Robin Hedley. I am grateful to Stuart Davison, Brian Nicol, and Ian Spencer for further help.

The Boiler is of 3/16ths copper, silver soldered .It weighs with blanking pieces 48.5Kg, and contains 13.75 litres water  when completely full.
    At a working pressure of 80psi this gives a boiler of 75.62 bar/litres
