Pictures of Boiler Maintenance/Rebuild

[vwrick]

Can anyone point me to pictures of steam locomotive boilers undergoing rebuild (ideally, in a roundhouse)?  I am interested in modeling the look into the front-end of the engine and would like to get it approximately right.  Thanks, Var

Just google "locomotive boiler" and look at the images... here are some of my favorites from the search, the first two are of C&NW workers in the front end of a boiler:

This last one is an overall view of a boiler in a shop:

 Hope that helps!

Thanks; these are great.  I was also hoping to get a view of the tubes in place inside the boiler so any additional pictures will be appreciated.  When I get my model done, I will post.  Thanks, Var
