When the boiler on the Reading 2100 steam locomotive (soon to be American Freedom Train 250) is fired up again, instead of coal, it will be running on oil. As a result, there needs to be a way to regulate the flow of oil into the firebox using a new valve that will be controlled by a power quadrant. My task this week is to machine the quadrant and bracket to accept a new bushing and to also machine the busing. A control shaft will then be machined to fit.
