Welcome, Dan! Thanks for showing at our first annual Global Power-Up.
It is amazing to see that a very large Doll like the 512/3 can be so dwarfed by the tall Carette...!!!

A wholly unbelievable amount of WWWWWOOOOOOOWWWWW Factor there Dan .... but I'll make my request easy on ya .... just run for us whichever engines that you most enjoy running!
Ok decided to run the largest carette hot air engine and my smallest one
Large is the 687/5 and the smaller 143/3

Dan, Dan, Dan...every time I see your collection it just BLOWS MY MIND man. That huge Carette makes my heart race and my pants fit funny. I could spend weeks just looking at one shelf.
Thanks all

I’m trying to get this finished tonight for its first ever run on steam after it arrived in a run down state
Means I now have 2 of the 677 range the 8 and now this one the 677/7

Hi Dan, The difference is just amazing. You do great restorative work!
Gil
A great restoration Dan.
I get so excited when one of my engines runs for the first time.
I always enjoy viewing your great collection.
Thank you for participating in GPU 2020. 🤠
OK, so now I've seen a glimpse of heaven... steam heaven.
I've got what I consider to be a big Carette 677 (the 5 variant) but your 7 variant would tower of it. So glad you rescued it.
687/5 is a gem, the 143/3 too.
Thanks Dan!
Amazing collection and amazing talent.
Dan, you a great looking collection and your restorations are wonderful.
you have a really nice collection there Dan ,thanks for sharing with us
