Big Hoss posted:Thank you, but the drawings do not show how the smoke is orientated in the locomotive. I need a picture of how the smoke unit attaches to the steam chest.
Thanks again for the quick reply.
Hello Hoss! Here are 2 photos I took of one of my 675 locomotives, which I restored from a rusted piece of junk.
The bracket securing the smoke unit is just behind the boiler front attached by a screw underneath. This particular bracket shows the level of rust originally found on the loco. The smoke unit is just aft the bracket. This photo was taken with the steam chest partially detached so the angles appear deceptive, e.g. the cam to the left is really beneath the bellows of the smoke unit.
This gives you a better view of the cam beneath the smoke unit seated in the space above the steam chest just abaft the boiler front.
Hope this helps.
