Burlington Mikado 3rd Test - Crosshead Yolk Replacement

I hadn't realise that this locomotive was missing something rather essential with its connecting rods at the cylinder end. It was missing a crosshead yolk.

The crosshead yolk holds the piston sliders in place. It was quite a challenge making those but I managed something, not perfect but certainly better than what it had before, which was in effect nothing. During the 2nd test (on my channel) it was noticed that something funny was going on with the crosshead because the bottom slider had dropped. I was eager to test the loco with it's now functional crosshead yolks but .... well .... see video.
