This one has recently arrived with us from the family of the late owner, it's been stored - apparently unused - for many years.
In "barn find" condition with tired paintwork, the engine will require work to recommission for use, including:
We've done an initial hydraulic test on the boiler at 200psi for 100psi working pressure - it is dry throughout, with no deflection of plates, we would warranty it as sound.
The engine runs on air in forwards gear - only two clear beats per revolution of the wheels, however it will tick over slowly.
