When I placed the order for my engine,two years ago,there was, in addition to my cylinder, on a bench a machined cylinder for a single Burrell,apparently a customer had bought the castings for a single but found he could not machine the cylinder so had brought it back to Page engineering for machining, it gave me a chance to have a good look at the cylinder casting.So there must be another set of drawings around somewhere. Anyone know what happened to the engines under construction,there were 3 singles,one compound showmans a Fowler road loco and a Burrell crane engine.

Well, Nigel,

the DCC showmans as well as the Fowler went to Germany to those people which had placed the order.
The owner of the Burrell DCC crane engine as well as one of the singles is, as far as I know, on TT here.
If you need contact data I can provide them via pm.
But where the the remaining two Burrell singles went, I have no clue.

George.
