Spent yesterday evening messing around with cylinders on the MSS, trying to sort out recent poor performance. I ended up switching back to the IP Engineering cylinders tried previously, and managed to coax a bit more life out of them (by throroughly lubricating before steaming); there's more power there, but they still need fettling in. So, a bit of running on blocks yesterday evening & this evening also. Looking at the old cylinders there seems a lot of lateral 'play' in the pivot bolts, which might explain things...
Also been thinking of ways to improve her looks(!); thinking about making some new side tanks with tram skirts, and maybe a rear bunker... Might try mocking something up out of card to see how it looks...
