Rather a rare engine, we've had one other in the last twenty or more years.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    It did, amazingly, exist as more than a patent specification or model - a full-sized one was shown at the Great Exhibition in 1851. It seems an utterly contrary way to build an engine, which normally means a builder was attempting to circumvent somebody else's patents - in this case it simply appears to be wilful eccentricity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The model is complete and turns over freely, although reluctant to run on air.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Includes free UK shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019751674197,"sku":"12543","price":795.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/12543-1.webp?v=1779906848","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/simpson-shipton-short-stroke-engine-stock-code-12543","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
