The engine has come to us from its original owner who commissioned it new - it's in good condition throughout, complete with driving truck.
Silver soldered copper boiler is by John Ellis, it's had recent hydraulic and steam tests in our workshop with certification issued for same.
A large, easy to drive engine - we had it in steam for an afternoon recently, it runs beautifully.
