I did not know this until this past weekend, but there are only 2 original 5 HP Red Wing Hit & Miss engines known, and only one runner which is actually at a local show to me, Little Log House - Hastings, MN (45 mins away). That example is owned by William Schaller who passed away in February, I didn’t know him but my cousin worked with him at the Red Wing nuclear plant and they didn’t tell me about him till after his passing :( I will have to make it to the show in a month and see if it is still there and get a video of mine running next to it. I don’t know if it will stay at the showgrounds or be sold on… Here is an old picture of it from Bill, this is the engine that was used to design the kit
