Wow Nick, just eight more days to go.
Here's an idea for your last shot. You dug them all out and
dusted them all off. Go out with a bang. Not a BB gun.
A group photo. ;D

I have put them all back as I’ve taken pictures, but to be honest, I haven’t touched any of my engines yet that are stored away elsewhere…

Carette was one of my guesses, which was also suggested by Oliv. I plan to try it out very soon!

I agree, I want to see this guy run and all around demo.  There is a lot going on for the engine, if I am looking correctly the engine's steam that it expels fills up the water tower and keeps the water wheel going, then that makes the hammer go?  How cool is that!

Looking at the colors on the base I have to say Plank.
I have seen one before on eBay DE.

The Jensen #90 is a crazy cool plant & a real attempt @ innovation from Jensen mfg. be sure to drain all the radiation out of it after each run, don't want to sprout extra fingers. 🌝

A Jensen #90 is Uber Cool, but a bit weird as well. Not sure I quite "get" what they were really thinking with this one, but I guess Atomic is about right it would seem!?!?

Picture #5 is a bit of a mystery however as it seems to be only about 1/3 as much in the numbering sequence, so how the heck did that one slip in there???  A radioactive mutant perhaps .....  ;c)

Yep, you're right, I must have been temporarily blinded by the radioactive emanations from that awesome powerplant!!!   {8>0=
