Working on Valve Gear Monday
|
9 February 1980, Erode, Tamil Nadu, India. In a scene that would make an American OSHA or FRA inspector pop an artery, a worker adjusts the valve gear on a WP 4-6-2. The rods are covered with whitewash to check for tiny cracks. If a bit of oil or rust showed up under the whitewash, there was a crack and the rod would be replaced.
