Not steam, but this caught my eye, as it was made by Fowler of Leeds, a 1PMD ( does this stand for Pump Mounted Driver?) from 1937. Found in a nursery in Basildon, Essex, running a compressor. Discovered in a poor state, with frost damage to water jacket and radiator. Restored in 2013, possibly, the only radiator cooled, running 1PDM in the country.

Sorry the narrative to my above photo should read :-

We popped along Saturday and had a lovely afternoon, unfortunately couldn't get there with the engine but will definitely be going next year

For a smallish show they had a really good selection of stuff and even the kids enjoyed wandering along the stationery engine line!
