A turbine stator vane includes; an airfoil portion; a shroud disposed on at least one of the side of a tip end portion or the side of a root end portion of the airfoil portion; and a protruding portion protruding toward the opposite side to the airfoil portion across a gas path surface in a radial direction. The shroud includes: a circumferential-direction passage disposed at the side of a trailing edge and extending in a circumferential direction; and a plurality of trailing edge end portion passages arranged in the circumferential direction at the side of the trailing edge, each trailing edge end portion passage having a first end portion connected to the circumferential-direction passage and a second end portion having an opening on a trailing edge end surface of the shroud. The circumferential-direction passage includes, in a cross-sectional view as seen in the circumferential direction, an oblique passage having a third end portion to protrude closer to the gas path surface toward the side of a leading edge, and a fourth end portion formed at the side of the trailing edge with respect to the third end portion, the oblique passage having an opening portion disposed on a trailing-edge side end surface of the protruding portion and closed by a lid portion, and a position, in an axial direction, of the first end portion where each trailing edge end portion passage connects to the circumferential-direction passage is positioned at the side of the leading edge with respect to a position of the trailing-edge side end surface of the protruding portion at a position where the protruding portion connects to the shroud.

A dummy ring assembly for removal is provided with a plurality of dummy rings. Each of the dummy rings has a dummy shroud section fitted into a vane ring groove of a casing into which a shroud of a vane segment is fitted, and has an arc shape whose central angle centered on a rotational axis is less than 90&#xb0;. The dummy shroud sections of the plurality of dummy rings are fitted sequentially into the vane ring groove of the casing. The vane segment is removed from the casing by moving the dummy rings in a circumferential direction along the vane ring groove.

An object of the present invention is to easily remove last-stage turbine blades. Provided is an exhaust chamber inlet-side member that has an annular shape around a rotor so as to form a part of an inner diffuser at a position facing, from the axially downstream side, base ends of last-stage turbine blades disposed on the most downstream side in the axial direction, and that is divided in the circumferential direction and provided so as to be detachable from the inner diffuser. When the exhaust chamber inlet-side member is dismounted from the inner diffuser, a space on the axially downstream side from the last-stage turbine blades is cleared.
