Twin pop-action safety valves with dummy Ramsbottom-type valve  fitted over the top. Water lifter fitted to tender. Single cylinder engine with  slide valve actuated by Stephensons valve gear, pole reverser on footplate.  Mechanical lubricator. Drain cocks rod actuated from footplate.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eTwo speed road gears, with winch and differential mounted  inboard of the nearside rear wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThe engine has a host of nice detailing and practical  modifications as a result of the builder's experience with his first engine. The  rather inaccessible blowdown on the back of the foundation ring has been plumbed  round to the side. The ever-dribbling Ramsbottom safety valves have modern pop  valves hidden beneath the chimneys - these give reliable closing and can be  adjusted from the outside with the engine in steam (and a tool is provided for  the job). The smokebox door has an internal baffle plate, with insulation  between inner and outer plates - the outer door stays cooler and the paint stays  on.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThere are minor jobs remaining - the cladding is made and needs  fitting with insulation beneath - the brass bands are included. The gear guards  require screwing on, the complete governor is ready to fit and the wooden  running board needs attaching to its brackets on the boiler. I would judge it at  comfortably less than a weekend's work - there is nothing to make, it is simply  a \"screwing bits on\" job. A complete set of drawings is included.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThe engine is ready for steam test, although ideally it should  be painted first. I make no comment on the quality of workmanship, the man's  track record and the photographs speak, I hope, for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThe builder, about to start his ninth decade is, happily, still  toiling in the workshop...\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eLength 48 inches\u003cbr\u003e  Weight 250 pounds\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019940417877,"sku":"2291","price":6500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/2291-1.webp?v=1779908691","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/3-inch-burrell-for-completion-stock-code-2291","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
