The engine has come from the family of the late builder - in excellent condition, it has spend much of its life on display in the late builder's house.
Boiler has had a twice working pressure hydraulic test with new certification issued - it's in good order and warrantied as such.
Regulator currently requires attention - whilst most leak, this one just to be different doesn't open. It's fitted in the smokebox - petticoat pipe, wet header and main steam pipes will require dismantling to get at it.
