[Simplex]

Ransomes portable model SG - 6 nhp built in 1935 to a Ruston design and worked in the UK (it has never been exported).

Boiler certificate until July 2014 and working at full pressure - 150 psi. Next hydraulic due in 2017.

Over the past year or so the wheels have been re-bushed, water pump overhauled and a partial repaint. It has been used for driving a thrashing machine and a rack saw - and is ready to rally. This portable is big enough to do a day's work but not too big to transport as it weighs only 4.5 tons. Included in the sale are fire irons, a wooden barrel, hoses, sheet, etc plus an extensive history of the engine.
