The builder is a talented  engineer with several other large traction engines to his credit - this one was  built using his own patterns and castings and is  exceptionally well-engineered throughout.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteel boiler with expanded in tubes and fusible plug, fed by mechanical pump  and injector. Water is carried in the tender and belly tanks, there is an  auxiliary five gallon water tank in the passenger trailer. Steam water lifter  mounted on the right hand belly tank. Working pressure 175  psi.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompound engine with slide valves actuated by Stephenson's reversing gear  with pole reverser on footplate. Mechanical lubricator mounted behind cylinder  block, whistle and steam siren mounted atop.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree speed transmission with differential and winch behind nearside rear  wheel, road wheels fitted with rubber tyres, screw-down brake operating on both  rear wheels. Working electric headlamps, with a battery discretely hidden in the  toolbox. The engine is road-registered with a V5 registration document.    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont color=\"#FF0000\"\u003e4th November 2005\u003c\/font\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont color=\"#FF0000\"\u003eThe pictures were taken early this year when the engine  first came in. Much taken with its quality and performance, I kept this one and  sold the Showmans version which was magnificent in its own way, but much more  fiddly to drive with a roof on, requiring a low driving trolley behind. This  engine has a very comfortable tender-mounted seat, a combination of its weight  and length means that it is completely stable with even the largest driver,  indeed David and even managed to drive it side-by-side on the seat (which is  worryingly close to 30 stone...).\u003c\/font\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont color=\"#FF0000\"\u003e It goes well (even the boiler inspector liked it, zooming  around our industrial estate until well after dark - we could only locate him by  the sound of the safety valves) and has just had a boiler inspection with a new  certificate issued expiring January 2007. There is full documentation for the  boiler going back to its original build, with steel material certificates and  previous Southern Federation Club boiler tests.\u003c\/font\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight 16cwt\u003cbr\u003e  Length 84 inches    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54020058939733,"sku":"2501","price":21500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/2501-1.webp?v=1779910233","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/4-inch-scale-burrell-dcc-road-locomotive-stock-code-2501","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
