Re: Cary vs Bowser M1


 

Also keep in mind that some model drawings in the various magazines weren't exact either and were used by manufacturers to produce models.

Gents, please keep in mind that many models have been designed from RR drawing or even from diagrams.
As a result, the model boiler was based on the actual diameter of the boiler.? This did not include the additional
diameter of the lagging and jacket.? Then when one encounters a model based on actual measurements there?
can be a significant difference in apparent boiler diameter.?
