We have all the records for this engine and this will be the 2nd time the engine will have been driving a drum in this country. I hold my hends up I have make a mistake on the year of build it is 1886 not 1896 that is the year of the treshing drun I always get the two mixed up sorry.

Well the engine work well to day for the school kids and the drum well less said the better I think on that thing. I will try to find out how to put pictures on here for all to see the engine and drum working.
