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

This is a great addition to your collection. Congrats!

Good on you, Charlie!

Larry offered this on the Forum and I bought it from him.

I sold it to Travis for what Larry sold it to me.

I wanted him to have a reliable runner for his second engine and I knew that Larry would have addressed any leaks, etc. 

Ironically, I have owned three of these (two with the Banjo Burner), and I have passed them all to others.

Here is a video of one that came from Oz Steam Demon.  I don't recall to whom I sold this one.

I also gave away another one in the 500 Member Giveaway.  That one went to the UK.

Travis is an enthusiastic young Steam Enthusiast.  It's nice to finally have someone locally to visit with on this hobby.  When he came by yesterday, we also steamed my Jensen 50 that I bought new in 2017.  My other Jensen 50 is a 1977 model that I bought on eBay for an absolute steal.  Here is a video of both of them running:

Next time he comes to visit, we are going to steam one of the big Marklins.
