That one really is a true Beauty of the first Chop, and other than a protective layer of dust, seems in rather good nick there Nick!

I've always wanted one of those "bricked in" boiler type engines also, but I do have the remains of a Bing Monna that while not bricked in, does have a fully shrouded boiler, but it really isn't quite the same.

Wonderful engine you have there, helping to make that super long drive all the more worthwhile for you no doubt!

That is a beauty! I have a feeling that having the firebox surrounding the boiler increases the steam production.

Oh yeah, all of the above compliments. Same here. Really like those bricked up houses.
Can't wait for the videos. Get some rest and the Bull out of your system, I can wait.

Thank you Nick for bringing this back up. I see several differences, probably changes over the years.
I hope you cleaned up the Overtype Bing so it looks as good as his little brother.
