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

This a Jensen 85 modified by our own Randy Tucker.
He did a great job with a lot of thought and it shows.
It resembles a scaled down Jensen 35.


It features a removable computer style power cord. This is a great help with keeping your display area neat.
Inside the firebox is a flickering glowing orange lamp that gives the appearance of a real fire under the boiler.
It has a nice look and feel.


Here are a couple pictures of it next to a #35 and a video is coming quickly.


Enjoy,


Gil

Thanks Gil. Glad you like it.

A very nice tricked out little #85 steam plant, lots of nice innovations & modifications by Randy, well done 

Contrary to what its mere size would indicate, it certainly looks like it´s capable of doing some serious work under full steam there...

Very nice modding by Randy, and congratulations Gil, it´s a neat little addition to your collection

Thanks everyone.  Glad to hear you like it. This engine was built from a new engine. I think the squeak is coming from the nickel plate that is in the bore. I guess when it gets hot it tightens up to much. I think this will go away after it get a little run time on it. I have noticed after they cool down the squeak goes away.
