Default Larger 3" or 4" Traction Engine

After selling our 3" Marshall back in May 2009 in search of a bigger engine we have not really found anything within our price bracket, two years later still not much luck! Does anyone here know of any larger 3" or 4" traction engines for sale around £10,000 preferable with a decent boiler.

If so message me with details,

Thanks

James

Apologies for not got back to everyone that replied in the last month, I have been really busy with uni work and steam engine hunting seems to have taken a back seat.

Not sure if any of the engines mentioned above are still available or if anyone else knows of any that are currently for sale as per the original post, (around £10k and preferably bigger than a 3" Burrell.)

If anyone can help send me a message

Thanks

James

On station road steam site, there is a 4" sentinel wagon for just over 10 thousand! Seen a similar wagon hit about 20 easily before, looks good as well!
