| Post subject: | Reference needed for Elesco feedwater heater instructions |
The Bytown Railway Society is a volunteer group currently working on the restoration of the cab interior of CP Royal Hudson 2858, currently residing within the Canada Museum of Science and Technology in Ottawa, Canada. Our goal is to restore the cab's appearance to the way it looked when retired in 1960, an ambitious task given the damage and even theft inflicted on the cab in the past 53 years. Uncovered during our work is a printed light-weight metal sheet titled "Instructions for Operating Elesco Feedwater Heater." The metal sheet has been liberally coated with green paint during its life and and removal of that coating is painfully laborious and not totally successful. What little we have uncovered shows verbal instructions and a line drawing, both printed black on a yellow background. The plate measures approximately 10 x 7" high. Does anyone have pictorial reference to such an item that we could use as reference from which the plate can be recreated and reprinted? Your assistance would be most valuable and gratefully received. |
