Krauss & Mohr hot air engine first time running in a long time.

At I suspect that is the case?
I bought this one out of PA and after some fettling it’s a runner.

That is a sweet running little engine. It seams to be all there and  looking great.
Thanks for the post and the video.

Really good runner and very rare for sure.
I like the patina and I guess it has a
nice size - bigger than the corona bottle - haha
Congrats, Arnold ;D

Congratulations Walter.

I had been really hoping to add this one to my K&M collection.

The governor is often missing.  This one is in great condition and it is great to see it running!

I am glad it went to a great home.  And what an excellent story to go with it.

Wow! These K&M engines are very nice...rather steampunk in appearance.

You’re lucky the seller didn’t accept my cheeky offer when it was first listed  ;D  ;D
