Stuart No.9 horizontal mill engine with governor and water pump

An exceptionally well built Stuart No.9, one of the best examples of this most handsome of mill engine designs we've seen.

The work of a prolific, highly talented model engineer - responsible for several stationary engines and some of the finest 3 1/2 and 5 inch gauge locomotives we've seen in many years - the No.9 is finished to exhibition standard, with much added detail.

Quality of fit and finish is first class, the engine turns over without a trace of wear or slack in the bearings. The engine runs well on air, there's some video of it here.

Completed in 1975, the engine remains in ex-works condition.
