Parts 74 - 83

Parts 74 through 80 consists of the valving on both sides of the boiler. Some of this was quite fiddly, but it all fit well in the end. The left rear assembly has a placard that betrays this as a model of the current full size replica in Utah.

Part 81 is the door to the firebox. The chain anchor is marked as optional and there is no dedicated location on the back of the boiler. There are also no diagrams showing chain link size or length.

Part 82 is the boiler support assembly at the rear. Glad I fixed the middle support height by grinding it down earlier.

Parts 83 are the black tabs extending out the sides of the boiler. They are .5 mm too thick because I had lamination star dyslexia. Therefore, all are a tight fit w/o glue.
