LLANGOLLEN
12th August 2008

44422 is currently sidelined at Llangollen with a faulty blower ring.

 Spark arrester.

 This was the culprit on the bench at Crewe awaiting temporary repairs while another casting is produced.

 This was the repair - a work of art.

 The casting can be seen in its rightful place in the smokebox of 44422 during the 2005 overhaul..
