A portable steam plant to John Haining's Dairy Engine design, comprising a small vertical engine coupled to a multi-tube copper boiler. Nicely made, it's been stored somewhere pretty grotty for the last few years. Although the engine turns over freely, from the thickness of copper used in the boiler shell it was only ever intended for display use - there's a small ding in it at the top.
