October 2011 Update

A few photo’s taken Saturday 8th October at Bridgnorth MPD when we were stripping the cladding and insulation from the boiler ready for the boiler lift. This is due to take place Friday 14th October.

Other parts removed are most of the cab fittings, lubrication pipe work, blast pipe, superheater header. Plus the safety valve, which was removed by two of our new members.

There’s more details of what’s planned for 7802’s overhaul on our new Boiler and Tender Appeal page.
