New Model Wilesco D12
« on: January 12, 2026, 04:46:07 pm »
Check out my new steam engine that arrived today . It is a new model D12 twin . I really admired these engines from the start, and I really like that brass and red look . Here are a few pictures of it powering my Quad stamp mill . Man that thing is noisy !

Somewhat reminiscent of a Mamod SE-3 I would say. An engine that I have always liked a lot.

Hopefully this new Wilesco version will prove to be every bit as enjoyable!!!
