• With tongue firmly planted in cheek, St. Paul Steam takes us back through the history of Jensen safety valves ... and well beyond !!!  ;c)
  
  Just be careful not to overtorque that last one  ...  it could strip the boiler threads.

• That huge SV does look rather good on top of the #30, but it also looks a just a bit like the aliens have landed.  ;c)
