Fowler Talisman
« on: May 04, 2024, 01:23:45 am »
Having finished a rebuild of a Wilesco Showmans for a customer I am planning my next project builds

I dont post here as much as I should (I must make a note to keep up to date here), but I am in the early stages of planning on rebuilding a Wilesco D40 into "Talisman" as a project, can anyone help me with a couple of good quality photos of this engine that I can use a referance, I will also be running this project on my Uskin Youtube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@uskinworks so will credit the photos accordingly.

Hope this is OK to put out an appeal here

Definitely OK.

I have subscribed to your YT channel.

I can’t help with any Fowler Talisman photos.

Good luck with the project.

Many thanks for the message, on another point does anyone know if (as I expect they did) Old Glory covered the build of the replica "Talisman" I don't seem to have come across a copy of this so far, I think it was completed in 2018 / 2019, but I may be wrong

Ok just to clarify a point Alex Sharphouse completed his rebuild of Talisman in 2019, I am putting together a potted history for my build and trying to find out how many 8NHP Fowler B6 where built...
