    Why does that engine hammer so much?

      Hi, the banging noise is partly the right hand high pressure cylinder piston rings bouncing along the cylinder bore due to lack of lubrication in that cylinder and also the corrliss rotary valves on all 4 cylinders not seating properly when air is applied to the valves upon admission to the cylinder, and therefore rattling slightly under steam they should very slightly float in the valve bores.

    Are they running that on compressed air?

      Yeah they've got to big compressors under the engine and a generator set outside to supply power to them

      They were the ones who ran the industry, the trains and so on. What a time, but what a damn job too.

    Is the banging noise the drop valves ?
