My collecting focus has changed and I doubt I will add any others.....unless I find a smoking good deal on a Stuart Beam Engine. 🤠
Not even a Star, MTB or Meteor?

I am trying to have some discipline Nick!  ???

Those are all great engines.

Hopefully, I still have a lot of years of collecting left....so, you never know what will pop up.

Discipline? What the heck is that??  :D

Don’t you have a one-one too?

I gave it to Gil.

I could never get it running.  I think he gave up too.

Nice family photo.

I'm suppose to be selling engines but so far plan on keeping the balance of the Stuarts.   

 I did sell a BB (perhaps that very one if Nick painted it) and a #5  with pump that was just a little too big to enjoy.

There is a Meteor in NY with an early style Stuart lubricator for $300   ;)

A very nice collection of Stuart you’ve got Charlie. These are the ones that do the real heavy duty work, remember that some of the Stuart steam engines’ setup helped the allies win the Second World War like the Firefly and others.

Thanks Mike.
