Great video, there all so interesting to see. But deos anyone know the name of the type of engine at 3:10? I would like to know, may build a model of it. Thanks, DAH.
@mechanicsnut "Horizontal Steam Pump manufactured by Evans & Co for pumping creosote at the Thomas Ness tar distillery in Caerphilly. With the steam cylinder and pump cylinder opposite each other and connected by a yoke the need for a crosshead is eliminated, making the engine simple and compact." extract from our guide book, if you want more details do email us, we would be happy to help. steamteam (@) wzlet.org

@harry4468 Oh, OK. I just might look into that, and I may build a model engine based on that design. Thanks.
