Wow, built by hand!  What a wonderful engine, I think I would watch that engine run for days on end!

Wonderful model engine!
Sulzer was a famos producer of steam engines (later diesel engines) in Switzerland (Winterthur; anther big one was Escher-Wyss, Zürich). They were famous also for their ship's engines.

Thank you, Thomas!

I always enjoy your posts.
This time you have given us Escher-Wyss, yet another constructor to research.
