Chedder Westbury mated to a Jensen 60 boiler in blue.

Looks stylish and likely to perform very well indeed!
It's a #75 boiler.

Doesn't look long enough to be a #75 boiler, but perhaps it is just the angle and the perspective that makes the boiler look so much shorter than the engine?!?!

You’re both wrong it’s a 25 boiler mounted on a 75 firebox :P :D
