2 inch scale Burrell agricultural engine - stock code 7976

A 2 inch scale Burrell agricultural engine, assembled from a Steam Traction World set of kits.

 
It's complete and turns over, although stiffly - the engine has been steamed twice (the boiler barely discoloured yet), however we can't imagine with much success in its current condition. Mechanically, as you might expect, it's like new.

It needs the top end stripping, although we'd be inclined to pull the whole thing apart, repaint it and put it back together - there's a set of original assembly instructions/parts list included to assist with this.

Still in their current product range, there are more details about the engine on Steam Traction World's website here.
