Stuart Victoria steam plant

A steam plant comprising a Stuart Victoria mill engine and vertical spirit-fired boiler.

The engine is well made and runs nicely on air, although with some wear apparent.

The boiler, complete with all fittings and a hand pump, has had a hydraulic test with new certification issued. Rather too small for the engine, even at low speeds the long stroke engine's modest steam demand quickly sees boiler pressure drop from 60 to 30psi.
