Is it true its down to 140PSI?

I know top gear is a fair bit lower than mine, but I bet it barely pulls itself along

Dont know about now but when i was useing her there was no restriction on her and trundled along at a good lick.
You had to go well so you could get to the next water stop as there were more holes in the tender than in my garden sieve.

Preston services have got Aveling rollers for sale

The little Marshall roller recently sold on Berribrook was worn out in 1962. It wasnt any better in about 1965 when i drove it a bit at Appleford rally. The reverser could be mounted in a number of places, some better than others. Wouldnt steam worth a damn, wouldnt pull the skin off a rice pudding. Tom spent ages trying to sell her, eventually got 140 pounds, which paid for a MUCH better replacement( A Fowler, from the same scrap yard). Tom died suddenly before getting the Fowler out to work or play. Regards David Powell.
