Double Diagonal stationary engine

We sold this one back in 2013, then again some years later. Still runs beautifully, but has suffered damage to one mainshaft in the meantime meaning the flywheel runs out.

A very finely made model of the double diagonal steam engine built by Langbridge & Co of Accrington which is preserved at the Bolton Steam Museum. The work of a retired engineer and prolific model maker, this one has recently come in as part of a collection of stationary, hot air and internal combustion engines, all built to a similar standard.

Pictures and video do better than words for this one - suffice to say fit and finish is impeccable throughout, the engine runs beautifully on a few pounds of air.

Flywheel 7 1/2 inches
