- 15F 3117 is certainly looking more like it means business. Compared to a year ago, the cab has gone from zero to this. Well done to Robert and John D for all the hard work.

- Soon to be united. The view from the tender of 15F 3117 sees some of the modifications that have been done. In the ab, Steve Smith and Miemie are busy with new floor boarding.

- The floor boarding has had to be redone on the 15F. The previous attempt of bituminous treatment led to the wood warping and hence the new look. Steve Smith and Miemie were hard at work with the fitting. The viewoint is from the Fireman's side looking downwards. You will observe the pegs for the drop grate handle used to operate the grates. This locomotive is not fortunate in having steam shaker grates.
