This is my TVR1A, running on on a Maccsteam 3.5" marine boiler, gas fired. Also features a PPS whistle.

  • Very nice Moose. Great to watch.

    I've been looking for those galvanised buckets for my Märklin 16051 (yes it does drip!). Do you have a source for them please?

  • Thanks mate....the bucket came with the lubricator, which I bought from Mainsteam.

  • did u loose much steam pressure while u were blowing down?

  • Nah, nothing I noticed!

  • What a beautiful slow runner that is! I have one, not yet built, that I intend to put in a Class A Climax. I have a small vertical boiler already from a thrown-away project belonging to my next-door neighbour - he took up fishing instead...

  • Very nice! I like it! I want one. Thanks for sharing :)

  • If your going to put it in your boat. How would attach servo to the engine

  • Good to see this set up and running. I have a TVR1A that I assembled myself, as a complete beginner. Have not run on steam, yet. Was looking at the MaccSteam 3.5" boiler, too. I want the horizontal one, though. Graham's instructions say the pressure must not exceed 35 psi for that engine. Here you are running it at 40 psi. Well, I suppose there is a generous margin of safety in Graham's design. :) Or else, I read things wrong?

  • excellent

  • Really excellent video. What a smashing engine. Answered a lot of questions for me. Also, just lurve the bucket! Thanbks you very much for an absorbing film.
