I'd like to see what your operation has to to test No. 6 locomotive valves and single car testing. I have seen the larger shop tables however we don't have a whole lot of space to work with, so something small which could be moved in and out easily would be ideal. Thanks for the help!

Now if only we had a nice car to run behind the engine. The Ashcroft gauge on the left is very cool.

I believe that Dave Garcia has information regarding test stands. He can be found at Orange Empire.
