Initially we are producing three variants: (a) non-superheated with Ramsbottom safety valves rather than Ross pops, (b) superheated non-vacuum fitted, (c) superheated vacuum fitted. In preparation is (d) superheated non-vacuum fitted and flush riveted smokebox. The tender is common for all four. See below for drawings of each type. |
