Boiler inspector yorkshire - Traction-Talk

Tony300678 · #1 Post / In Thread 29th March 2020, 11:08 AM

Looking for a boiler inspector for my large scale model who covers the west yorkshire area. Any recommendations? Obviously have to wait for all this mess to sort itself out before doing the actual test but maybe able to start paperwork side and advise so its ready to go when we are not on lock down.
Any help appreciated
Tony

Would recommend Jonathan Wheeler. He’s up north regularly

Jonathan does a good job for me and the Forncett Steam Museum. I know some people have said he is a bit cautious, well so am I when it's my face next to my Burrell and the general public next to the Cochran at the museum.

Hi,
I can recommend Chris Shuttleworth, he is based in East Yorkshire, Foston on the Wolds.
He does both my 6" McLaren, and 9" Burrell, so is used to big scale models, very reliable, and professional.
His number is 07970452092.
Regards
Ian Jenner

Totally agree with the social distance so cant do the actual test but the paperwork side is on with now so at least moving in the right direction.

I would much rather have a cautious inspector than one who does his testing without getting out of the car! Whilst I like to think I've been around boilers long enough to know if they're safe or not before I call the inspector out there's always the possibly that we've missed something. That's why we employ a professional.
