My Brother's Weeden #34 - Great Looking Engine!
« on: January 02, 2025, 08:28:22 pm »
My brother picked up this Weeden #34 and it looked great on the sale, mainly it looked 100% complete.  The seller did say there were a lot of leaks and would be a "challenge" to get it running on air or steam.

While it was 100% complete, its linkage was all snafu'ed and very poor repairs.  So he got a good deal on another #34 that was missing bits and messed up steam line but its linkages were in good shape.  So between the two he has a very nice Weeden #34, IMO.
