I would keep an eye out for the 3" Maxitrak aveling, they are a great little engine and all the parts are still available from maxitrak. Also they seem to be a fair bit cheaper than the equivalent 3" Burrel and nip along the road pretty well so are a more "fun" engine imo.
Berrybrooks have one available but sounds as though the boiler is knackered otherwise i would of expected them to spend the few hours on it to get a ticket. Saying that you could probably change the boiler over in a day as all the cylinder block and motion are mounted on a separate plate which bolts on complete.
