The BAA is actually two speed , and would be fine to travel with a coal and water trailer . Actually a very interesting engine , being basically a self moving portable . The whole backend is hung on four rods , and can easily be removed so that you can horse the gumtree logs straight off the ground and into the firedoor . Also inverted firebox crown , annular gear drive , separately driven winding drum , stub rear axles and high ground clearance for fording rivers : a bush engine . Nice to exhibit with a saw bench
