LS LOC Gold Plated Mini Traction Engine (old video)
« on: March 06, 2019, 12:00:56 pm »
Well, this video is going on 10 years old this October and I've told myself for the past 2 or 3 years that I would fire it back up a second time for a new HD video when it hit 15K views and it's sitting at 14,916, so not long to go...  ;D

Sorry about the quality, but stay tuned for the new HD release in a week or so  ;)

A very rare opportunity to see one of these little gems in steam...

Will be looking forward to see your upcoming HD recording of this, as the details does appear a tad blurry here

Thanks Jan and Kevin, by the way I have only ever fired mine the one time, so yes, rare to see in steam...

Maybe I'll fire up the Holzapfel - Der Kleine Willy for the first time as well

Very nice. I have the mini-Rocket, but have never fired it, as it is unused....

This has only been fired the one time for the video. I've got the Rocket, Sans-Pareil and the Stationary as well. The Sans-Pareil needs a piston and I couldn't get the Rocket to run more than a half a lap before the boiler was dry. Still need to fire up the stationary...

Haha there's plenty out there that I wish I could afford... just watched an auction Sunday with 100 or so steam toys that all went above my budget!

I think if I ever won the lottery, my first goal would be a full size traction engine, followed by setting up a toy steam museum. I don't gamble often, so not likely to happen  :D
