Something about three-cylinder steam locos’ chatter…
12:14 *chills* :D
Hey, thanks. Nick.
!steam trains!
11:03 Did they leave the water hatch open, or is it fitted with an automatic stoker?
Ah - neither of those. The steam at the back of the tender comes from the steam driven air pump hidden inside the back of the tender. Many steam locomotives have had air pumps fitted in various locations, 34067 'Tangmere' for example has one on the left hand side of the front buffer beam, (it was moved from a position under the buffer beam after a few seizures were experienced in traffic. The air pumps allow the locomotive to run with air braked coaching stock.
