  I think it is one of Wilesco's most affordable engines and a great introduction to steam, it is also very nicely proportioned and has some power as shown in the video below:

• So shiny when new 
  
  Steam engines in the grass always make for a nice picture

• Nice photos.
  
  Agree about the D6... it was the engine my Dad brought home 48 years ago.

• Gotta say, Wilesco managed functionality AND good looks in their engines...definitely a look of their own.

• Thanks guys, it is a very nice 'Toy' engine and very controllable when fired on gas.
