  • What a superb model,certainly very few models of this type exist.These twin beam engines were very common and were used mainly in the water supply industry.there are one or two engines in the UK which are intact and still in their houses.The surviving ones are in a poor state having been vandalised and left to rust.There are a couple of sites on the internet that have pictures of these remaining engines.Papelwick has a working preserved example.

  • Un modello splendido.
