2" Cole's 1915 Case 65HP
« on: April 03, 2019, 10:42:55 pm »
When I built my "photo bench" I made it big enough for a future purchase  ;)

Some of you have seen this in my "Trip to Manitoba" thread and when we get some green grass and I'm feeling stronger, I'll carry this one back outside for some better pictures



Next to its "little brother" 1" Maxitrak Case 80HP



And with a Mamod TE1... if you look close, you'll see two miniatures that snuck into the photo  ;)

Gawd that's a good looking engine.

You are gonna have to eat your wheaties just to be able to pick it up!

That should be a blast to run.

It's a bit heavy/bulky to move around in the house at 150 lbs, and I'm only 160  :D

I can't wait to light the first fire!  ;D

Sure did, but the Mamod really, for me at least, shows just how big and impressive this Case of yours is.

I'll have to do a Google and see if Australia brought any Case TE's into the country back in the heydey of steam.

Beautiful engine Nick. When you compare it to the others you realize just how big it really is - well done!

Yes, it looks so small in the first picture, and I cannot believe how small it makes my Maxitrak look. If that little thing can pull me, I can't wait to see how much power this one has  8)

Incredible lineup !!!


That biggie is an amazing addition Nick, am really looking forward to see it going.


Love the group photo...
Knowing the size of a Mamod TE, very nicely puts them all in perspective for me.
