Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

I have one A. Bohaboy engine in my stable. It looks just like the first one on Gil's catalog page, except that it is half again taller than the dimension given there.

This engine runs smooth and easy on light air pressure, but I've never had it on steam. I suspect the results would be the same however. It was once painted a medium dark green and there are still vestiges of that paint here and there in the nooks and crannies. It certainly looks to have been ridden hard and put away wet many, many times and it sure isn't very "pretty", but for all that it does seem to be in good operational condition.
