Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

A little be ago the eBay Seller replied with a little information about the B-44

We worked with a family member that had this collection stored in there garage untouched for 30 years. We have sold close to 200 different types of steam engines over the last few months.

I have a feeling before the engine went into storage 30 years ago it was likely in good shape, if not perfect shape.  By the sounds of it, this person was a big collector.
