It certainly looked like a Fowler to me, and the number on the headstock is 77 as I saw it on Thursday without the grease on it. I am guessing that 77 is the fleet number? It has had a hard life judging by the worn and wobbly gear on the offside and the cast rear roller rings had a few chunks out of them. My question is how many Fowler rollers have wood in between the wheel rim and the tyre? It will certainly be a nice engine when restored.

Regards

Matt
