Came across the pictures of this one while looking through my Flickr album and thought it was a good time to share the video

Thanks, Nick! Great to see a #90 on live steam!


It looks familiar, too.

I just looked at the email you sent me about the engine and it was 10 years ago yesterday (16th)

Here it is (left) next to yours (right)

Wow.

Quick look at the Jensen site says.....they no longer exist.
Guess these inconsistencies keep life interesting with surprises.

Hi Wayne, Jensen says that there were supposedly 25 made with the 1961 batch and another 25 in 1988. There is only one known from 1961 and even that isn't 100% certain regarding  1961. Needless to say they are quite desirable to all Jensen collectors.

If I remember right, Gil has a neat story about an engine that was left out at the curb for garbage pickup.

I could never be a garbage/scrap man... too much would come home with me  :D
