Piston Build Diary

Crafting the piston for the cylinder of the road locomotive is a complex process of precision engineering. Beginning with high-quality steel, the piston is turned on a lathe to achieve the desired dimensions and smooth finish. The piston rings, crucial for sealing the steam, are carefully installed with precision tools. Each piston undergoes rigorous testing to ensure a perfect fit within the cylinder, guaranteeing optimal engine performance, efficiency and reliability.
