Hey Bachmann,
My new 2-8-0, which runs perfectly right out of the box, has a pair of pipes hanging free below the cab.
See the exploded part diagram N811X-IS001,top of page where injection molding P/N 00G01, and the right side molding P/N 00G02 show the long trailing pipes.
I've Googled "steam locomotive piping" articles but can't seem to find any explanations. Occasionally, such piping can be seen in photos of actual locomotives.
Please tell me the purpose of the pipes.
Thanks,
Frank
