I wondered which one it was too, never found out , looks to be 5 horse.

Yes still owned by John Dyke, He was telling me the last trip he took it on before restoration, he found the crank was broken 2/3ds through where they'd welded a balance weight on! , not individual ones but a single block simmillar to Mac's. Now got a new crank with individual wieghts, plus all the boiler work.
