Just dismantle a 2-8-0 steam engine (a K36). I did not pay enough attention at removing the trailing truck and now I don't where to put the spring: between the frame and the truck support or between the support and the head screw. I tried both ways but did not see big differences.
Trailing truck position

The spring should go between the truck and the frame.

I was going to point out that a K3 was a 2-8-2, but then realized that your problem WAS that is was currently a 2-8-0
Am I missing something, or is it April 1st already? A 2-8-0 wouldn't have a trailing truck. It must be a lead truck. This would explain the difficulty in re-assembling. Try putting the truck at the front.
Glad I could help.

garlic cous-cous and sautéed asparagus. Coffee and sherbet for desert then walnuts, cheese, and port. Cigars for the gentlemen (and ladies if they so desire)!
Crock-Pot Crack Baby
When the quivering, hopelessly addicted crack baby succumbs to death, get him immediately butchered and into the crock-pot, so that any remaining toxins will not be fatal. But don?t cook it too long, because like Blowfish, there is a perfect medium between the poisonous and the stimulating. Though it may not have the same effect on your guests, a whole chicken cooked in this fashion is also mighty tasty.

When brown, mix everything into the crock-pot, and in 6 to 8 hours you have turned a hopeless tragedy into a heartwarming meal!
George?s Bloody Mary
Don?t shy away from this one, it is simply a cocktail variation of good old Blood Stew. When a pig is killed, its throat is slit and those present quaff a cup of hot blood to soften the wintry air. From the dawn of man to this day, humans have always drunk blood! American deer hunters are a prime example.
