A lovely display Walter! So much to absorb.

The Dancing Steam Toy are my favorites and I haven’t managed to acquire one. You have an entire Dance Cast. 🤠

What is the Maker/Model of the three vertical engines?

Two are by almost your namesake Charlie i.e. Charles Rossignol (French?) and there is debate about the one on the right; it is either early Doll or Carette, everytime I think that I've got it sussed someone tells me different.
I think that you might even have something like.... https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/modelsteam/vertical-carette-from-ebay-us-like-french-rossigno-t106234.html

Thanks Walter.

Yes, I have two similar engines.

And, in addition to Doll and Carette, add the Weeden 78 to the mix. 🤠

I kind of figured Nick would start drooling over that top shelf.
That's a mighty fine display.

Looks like there may be about 10% of those four shelves that I have ever seen before ... the other 90% is all new to me.

Wow, what a rare and unusual collection of very desirable Steam Engines and Accessories!

Thanks for share all of that with us.
