Large vertical engine - stock code 9157

A large single cylinder steam engine, of substantial construction, weighing it at just under a hundredweight.

It has light surface rust on the pillars which would come off easily with fine emery cloth - with the brasswork polished it will make a handsome engine, capable of doing a serious job of work.

We've run it on air in the workshop, there's a clip of it here.
