@boazrg While the stoker has its advantages at speed, it's not necessary when they're standing still. A good fireman or hostler can easily keep it hot.
What happened to the automatic stoker? I can't believe this big Berkshire is being hand fired! No fireman on earth could keep steam up in an engine this size!
