and saw, on page 96, that PSC produces 2 different versions of Elesco
exhaust steam injection systems - type SF and type T. What did SF and T
stand for, and which did CP have on its engines?
I have all sorts of steam engine apparatus manuals. I have a book for the
Worthington Type B but I don’t have one for the Elesco exhaust steam system so
I don’t know what SF and T stands for but comparing photographs to the PSC
catalogue suggest that the engine used something like the type T.
seems to be that the Elesco heater could be slightly inset into the top of
the smokebox, or else mounted above it completely.
There were many different K series feed water heaters each having their own
heating rating and application type, ie. above or below the smoke box or set
into the top of the smoke box.
For a model I would think you just have to pick something that looks close to
the photo. Chances are excellent no one’s going to notice.
