I've never worked on an engine newer than a 1924 two foot gauge Baldwin. How would you typically use the feedwater heater? Put it on at a steady rate once you got out on the mainline? I read an article once about a guy who worked with SP 4449 talking about how he was nervous about having to make part of a trip without use of the feedwater heater, obviously on modern engines they were really considered a neccesity.
Regards,
Trevor H.
