Thanks Andrew

It is good to get amongst it mate, but we have found many problems underneath. Of course I'll be annoying the members with a heap of more questions.

If you look at my album you see them Andrew

Well fellas we got it done with NO breakages. Thanks to you all,

Inside the smoke box right at the bottom covered with a layer of soot and junk. After scratching around with found a small cover plate. This when lifted and remove gave us access to a hole and t the bottom of that hole we found a head of a screw, we unscrewed it an off came the top with no problems.
I will put up some photos to the albun of what we found

. No wonder it would not run. But in hindsight we all agreed that it would have happened (broken) sooner rather than later. The next job is to find replacement parts, and get them flown out to Vietnam.

Thanks again

Can anybody help here

A further explianation.....sorry for the trouble

Attempted to remove the firebox with boiler and smoke box complete as one assembly but failed?
We need to know how the smoke box is connected to the main cylinder housing? Front of train.
There are numerous nuts below but the ones in the four corners are slightly larger than the others
and there is one in the centre that may also be used for connecting the cylinder housing to the underside of the smoke box?
We have disconnected everything at the cab end of the train, or at the firebox end and it is free.
We have removed the stack to access the blower mounting and removed it from inside the smoke box.
We then removed the steam pipe connection to the cylinders from inside the smoke box but cannot remove the smoke box from the cylinder housing?
It would be appreciated if your forum contact can assist us.
We do not want to remove the said nuts unless we know what they are for?
