Complete the form below to enquire about this product and we'll be in touch.

We sold this one back in 2015, it's recently come back as part of a large collection of engines from a long time customer in Switzerland. New and unsteamed when we bought it from the builder back then, it remains in the same condition now.

Words below and video are from 2015, the photographs opposite were taken in recent days.

A 2 inch scale agricultural engine, built to Reeves' Ruston inspired "Lincolnshire Lad" design - it makes up into a large, well-proportioned engine.

Unsteamed from new, this engine was completed some years ago - the boiler was commercially built, delivered new in 2004 with manufacturer's twice working pressure test and PED declaration of conformity.

Silver soldered copper boiler, 80psi working pressure, feed by mechanical pump and injector. Single cylinder with slide valve actuated by Stephenson's gear, pole reverser, mechanical lubricator. Two speed transmission, band brake to nearside rear wheel.

The engine runs well on air - there's a clip of it running in the workshop here - and is complete with a set of drawings and material and adhesive for rubber tyring the wheels.
