Yes, it is an upright.  I can look for more videos at home.

Prototype upside down, Do know of another built aside from RedRyder's, did I see it running in an Jacktown video along another upright we could confirm count #'s 8 and 9?

I sold mine to crazydoug.
He got a vertical, horizontal and inverted from me. He may have sold or traded them. He got another horizontal at Cabin Fever which he may still have.

The inverted you saw at jacktown and was displayed by Doug after he got it from me.
A lot of Herb's engines were sold at Jacktown and I recall at least one offered as a raffle prize.

My verticals I repainted in a dark red.

Here is the blue vertical side shaft engine after I cleaned it up and painted it red.
