Here are some specs that I am able to read off of my 6 by 7 negative. Dimensions are metric.

HP cylinders: 500mm by 640mm
LP cylinders 870mm by 640mm

Firebox was to have had a large combustion chamber
Two large auxiliary water tanks underneath boiler barrel, combined capacity of 20m3 (don't ask me how much this is)
I could not see a spec for driver diameter.
Specs show a pair of smaller piston valves for each cylinder.
