Seems that the flexible staybolts, since they are just that, flexible, that they seem to last a long time. Taking the caps off and inspecting them is just part of annual maintainence. They get new seals and have to be torqued to a certain torque spec. Nice to see they are actually working on something other than the buildings. Collecting parts for 4014 is half the battle, having all they need to put it together on hand once the boilerwork and any frame/driving axle box work is done will make the reassembly go pretty quick.
