Swiss Post has 5 Days for a Distance of 100 miles!
at least the parcel arrived in good condition.
The object of desire is perfect and there is nothing to fix...
2 Burners! 1 for Esbit and 1 for alcohol and 4 Boxes NOS Tablets
See what was inside:
Arnold ;D

I've never heard of H Augstberger before. Those other engines on the glass shelf with the
vertical ship style engines, are those from H Augstberger also?
They really are nice looking engines, very sturdy looking too. Congratulations Arnold.

Very nice Arnold! I find it interesting how many of the parts look a lot like Märklin parts, including the engine frame.

Yes, these are all Ha-Mobil engines - very strong and excellent made - swiss quality
the company's name was Hugo Augstburger, Baden, Switzerland - H for Hugo and A for Augstburger = HA
There have been 3 sizes of Steam engines like the Maerklin 4097 and 2 sizes Ships engine. Also
the Roller and some accessories. There is a nice Video from Gil with one of the Ship engine:

Thank you for your comment - Your engine is the ST 12 and I have a picture
of an original one. The color of the Boiler housing and chimney should be copper.
If you need a new Glass Cover just let me know - Arnold
