Thread: Digital archive error

I am now getting the same result as Keith Bloor - with a report of incorrect user details.

Any sign of a fix yet?

The Arduino Tacho article in MEW294 mentioned that the code would be posted on the forum. Has it happened yet. I've searched but nothing is showing up.

Thread: Boiler pressures 3.1/2 gauge Pacifica
13/06/2015 17:28:03

I thought this would be easy to find out as I just happen to be looking through some 1946 MEs - but no.

There is no mention of pressure rating in either the original introduction to the loco in issue 2333 (Jan24) or the start of the boiler build in issue 2372 (Oct 24).

So far the only reference I can find is in 2379 (Dec 12) where he talks about an alternative boiler shell. In this he comments that ".. a 16-gauge seamless copper tube will stand 80lb working pressure .. ". Since he originally specified 13-gauge (3/32-in.) then I assume that it would be safe to assume the original rating was at least 80psi.
