Rather more polished  than when it was last here, although the steering chains are still back to  front. Words below are of 2006, pictures show it as of yesterday\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRather a rare engine, this is a 1 inch scale model of a 7nhp Davey Paxman  agricultural traction engine to Henry Greenly's design, serialised in  \"Model Engineer\". A handsome engine, Davey Paxman had also been  responsible for building several of Greenly's designs for the Romney, Hythe and  Dymchurch Railway in the 1920s - I suspect a factor in his choice of model.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis engine was built many years ago to a high standard - the machining work  is good throughout. It has been run on air in the past, but never steamed. The  water pump has not been plumbed up and the steering chains appear to have had  small fingers around them in the past and need a little fettling (if only to get  the steering to work in the conventional direction when the wheel is turned).\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eLength 16 inches\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019753312597,"sku":"3687","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/3687-1.webp?v=1779906878","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/1-inch-scale-davey-paxman-traction-engine-stock-code-3687","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
