A 3 inch scale Wallis & Steevens "Simplicity" steam roller, of pedestrian build quality but complete and running.

The copper boiler has had a hydraulic test with new certification issued. The engine turns over freely and runs on air at wide regulator settings, but simply oscillates to and fro at what should be a tickover - attention to the eccentric and/or valve setting is required.

Complete with detachable canopy and drawings.
