Bought this from a local steam club. It had been damaged in transit but not that badly.
Broken boiler pipes, bend up whistle ,pressure gauge, and bent governor that was also loose.

A bit big for my cabinet I think
Looks like it is capable of serious work .

Impressive piece Al :o But I thought you were down-sizing? ;) :D

Great engine and worth the work to rebuild.
This is exactly what I like best - you can make
a restoration in your own style. Enjoy....

You are going to need to build a separate building for this one.
You are playing with the big boys now.
I can't wait to see it under steam!
Amazing addition to your steam collection Al.

Down-sizing house and collection so getting this engine ready to sell.
I"ll be moving south and they don't have basements.
