Around 90% assembled, work to date is pedestrian, the paintwork of a standard rarely seen. This is really a strip it down and start again job - we've had STW engines in the past which have gone well, I'm sure there's quite a good engine in here waiting to be unleashed!
Still in their current product range, there's further information and a full specification for the engine on Steam Traction World's website here.
Complete with a box of parts, two folders containing the assembly instructions and original manufacturer's boiler test certificate.
