    I’ve run into a persistent issue where the boiler mesh appears to phase through the cab interior on multiple Smokebox steam locomotives — specifically the Big Boy, Challenger, and FEF‑3.

    The only "Mesh" I cab see in the picture is the floor of the loco
    Which is what is supposed to be there - like a checker plate for foot grip
