Bashing A Brass USRA 0-8-0

[Schraddel]

O.K. here we go.


During demounting the engine the dome came loose because the soldering pints of the mounting plate inside were broken.
Never mind i thought this piece is small enough to resolder with an electric iron.
Done.
And then:


hock: The gold laquer was browned and started to peel off.
Fortunately with the aid of an rotating brass brush in the Dremel the burned laquer could be removed complete.


I made a bridge out of brass sheet with safety thread pattern on one side. The hinge is simply a length of 0.5mm brass wire soldered to th edge.


Next in unsoldered the injector beneath the cab on the egineer's side. This injector was mounted zu much backwards and not in conclusion with prtotype photos.


The injector resoldered. I added the two valve rods.


On the firemens's side too.
You can also see the bridge mounted.
