 Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2007 3:53 pm Post subject: Rosa pressure guage |
 |
|
Right I had an idea to include a pressure guage on Rosa. The mamod ones are 3/4 of an inch diameter so its perfecto for the cab. Here is my original idea for attaching it to the loco. With the safety valve above that.
I think it should work...In theory

ITs a totally different system Mike
The pressure guage will take the steam from the whistle thread and into the cab. The safety valve will then screw on top of that "chamber" like the picture. The steam pipe, lubricator pipe will remail untouched

| Thats better - but surely the d/lubricator has one pipe in and one pipe out? thence onto the steam chest/speed control? |
