110 forum posts 11 photos	Posted by Bob Youldon on 02/02/2017 12:16:45: Many years ago I built a 5" gauge A1X Terrier and I experimented with a "Westinghouse" steam pump, i had several goes at it finally utlising a small piston valve in the pump head operated by the trip rod and a slide valve built into the rear of the steam cylinder, In that size the main problem was one of condensation, but when kept hot would work quite well; Julian mentioned that you had drawings for your Westinghouse Pump. I have a box of brass and F/c S/S for one and the drawings have become separated. Any chance of a shufti, please ? Kindest regards Peter
