I like to see these accessories and engines. These don't seem to be available where I'm located. How frustrating! Anyway, thanks for showing.

Interesting transmission, the way it is configured with the block base.  Of course the base helps put the driving wheel at the right height.  Nice.

Dave, yes, it was sold as a set as in the video. The engine itself was also sold separately.

That's certainly stronger and heavier than the stamping mills you see offered by Fleischmann and others. A friend of mine has my collection books, so Brent, was this offered by E.P. as a toy set? Like their praxinoscope, grinder,etc.?
