Before final fixing in place of the boiler there have been some extra work needed. This has comprised making a frame for push-pull fittings obtained from Laurie Griffin, replacing the Johnson whistle with a better example, and fettling a better sanding gear.........

The kit provides very basic sanding gear parts..........

So I fettled my own version based on photo evidence........

The push- pull frame I made from some spare brass sheet...........

And finally the whistle, which I replaced and modified to fit.

The boiler is now fixed in place.......
