Traction Engine Re-builds are the most common type of rebuild we undertake. The most common restoration projects include the replacement of fireboxes, re-staying, re-riveting and re-tubing the boiler.
It’s very important that when commencing a full rebuild that a number of procedures are followed to make sure a full picture of the condition of the boiler is gathered before the rebuild phase begins. A clear schedule of works and defects ensures the quality of the rebuild from the outset and can dramatically reduce hidden costs.
