Bing 10/148
« on: November 01, 2019, 11:55:05 pm »
Always wanted a Bing "Bowman look-a-like" as in the 10/147, then this came along  ;D  I have never seen another, but I know Olivier has one. He has told me this is only the second he has seen. Definitely a very toy-like engine, but those are my favorite

Wow Nick. You have been busy!

I can vouch for two more of these that you will see in my upcoming video of Museumsfest in Freinsheim. 🤠

Very interesting, both twins? That would make 4...

I have the single cylinder version.

It's chunky compared to other early German engines
