Watching "Train Truckers " last night, as an aside, as with the heavy haulage / aviation programmes, the content is always interesting, but, the commentary and inane graphics showing what could go wrong is, frankly, dire, and I was curious about the pin securing the tender to the engine. From the way it was being "assisted " into position, I assume it's an interference fit ?
Hence my query, purely out of interest, is, how often would this pin have been removed when in service and what inspection methods would have been used to decide if it was still serviceable ?
