Weeden NP No. 43

I bought this in January 2018 on a tip from Nick.

Thanks Nick!

It came with the original box plus the instructions.

It had never been fired until yesterday. 🤠

A stunning example Charlie, it looks better than the sales brochure

Saw this video on YouTube yesterday.
If I had the storage space... And the money... I'd have a few more engines.

Nice vid Charlie, I have one of these engines and have only ever ran it once. You've made me want to get it down now and rectify that.

Thanks for posting up that info page as well mate.

Always happy to talk someone into an engine purchase  ;)  :D :D

But has it already been that long ago??  :o

Always been one of my favorite toy steamers and a basic 43 was my first ebay engine purchase.
