Hey Thomas,
That didn't turn out too bad. I have the same one here and it's missing a few original things.
The stack, front boiler support leg, and the burner are not factory issued. Like most of them
out there mine is missing the catwalk supports, your lucky there, you have yours. One other
thing I noticed different was the boiler endcap and the positioning of the site glass holes.
Yours run straight up and down where mine run on a 45 degree angle that puts the drain cock
in the bottom center. Now I wonder if someone took the endcap off and moved it on mine.
They're good running engines.
Thanks for showing it.
Tommy
