Just a few pics I had at hand;

SE1



It came with this little leaflet, always nice to have.



SE2 before and after a bit of TLC. Note the bent steam pipe and exhaust throttle, I guess is suffered a fall at some stage. Fortunately I managed to straighten them out.





Just a clean and polish needed for the SE3,





"Wells” traction engine made by a “D Sutton” with missing steam pipework (fixed now!)





And under steam powering my Mamod workshop. A Mamod burner was used as the original one is a bit unreliable!

Nice collection, and a great workshop set up too.

Good to see Mamods making up the bulk of a collection as well.
