A well-built 4 1/2 inch scale Burrell agricultural engine, crisply machined and nicely detailed. In good mechanical order, it needs a retube and crownstays replacing - other than that boiler looks to be in good condition.
Welded steel boiler with expanded tubes, 100 psi working pressure, feed by injector and mechanical pump. Cast iron cylinder with slide valve actuated by Stephenson's gear with pole reverser, mechanical lubricator. Pickering type governor.
Two speed, three shaft transmission with differential, rubber tyres over strakes, winch behind nearside rear wheel with fairleads on tender.
