You did a wonderful job there, Tommy. There is something dignified about the machine. In my opinion, the Carette steam engines are something special anyway. You have the gift of getting something special out of such a machine.😍🍸👍

It looks a lot tidier than my one here
Mine looks the same  but with the boiler feed pump

Cheers

Beautiful engine! I love Carette and especially this model with its Stephenson's link reversing.
I would love to see how the reversing system works Tommy 😁👍





So would I.

I steamed it and shot a video right after I took these shots. It works in both directions but
one is a third the speed of the other. Still playing with adjustments. I believe this is the
696 model.

You really have some fine oldies in that collection of yours, thanks for sharing Tom.

I've had this for a while just cleaning and resealing the site glass. Which I have to do again,
it's plugged on the bottom. Was going to save it for next years steam up. There are other ones.


Hope you like it.
