Currently the loco is partly dismantled for it's annual boiler insurance exam. This principally involves the backhead fittings but for other reasons the dome is also off, I suspect to blank off the regulator for a reface and to blank it off for the hydraulic test. Todays pics were necessarily limited due to shortage of time and also various bits of wet paint around the engine. Each photo has a caption but it's all pretty obvious, any questions ask away.
