So the Wooten firebox is the big ol thing at the back of the boiler and was better for burning certain types of fuel than others? And the Whyte system was a method of capturing the condensate water from the piston cylinders through a series of valves and bypass orifices, whereupon it fed back through a preheater piping system which used boiler heat as the medium, and then returning the heated condensate water to the boiler which contributed to the increased efficiency and distance between stops of the locomotive?
