Steamgranny's small steam shelfApologies to older members who have seen it all before but a long hot summer & fact I'm presently in UK living out of a suitcase mean I haven't had time to do anything new 
(Am also working with a very slow laptop  )
Thus I offer my very humble shelf & a small symphony in steam 
Overtype ouverture
Featuring a Bing overtype with replacement base & a small Doll
Mersey Mazurka
Mersey 51
Interlude......
Featuring Hero steam turbine - a LIONEL toy from Famous Inventors series.
Background chorus courtesy of Provencal Cigales 
Exhaust to chimney trio
Featuring from left to right - Bowman 158; Mersey 51; Latimer Plane L5
Solo in SEL Major
1550 adagio
And now to bed.......See you all tomorrow

I must say, that Bing overtype is a beautiful engine.

Alicia, you need make no apologies...that is a gorgeous collection and you are head and shoulders above the rest of us in terms of posing your engines against lovely backgrounds. I too love that little Mersey, it is a charmer for sure.
thanks for sharing,
Roger

Thanks for the kind comments so far & apologies for being so late in on day 2 due to other commitments & not a few computer problems  .
However, a surprise steam up has provided 2 guest appearances on my little shelf
My brother's hitherto unknown upright, since identified as a probable Australian Weldon by Tony (tmuir).
And a Marklin upright:
Interlude.......
Performed by Gakken LTD Stirling ( & that pesky background chorus again ):
And returning to the main theme, a gentle Luton lullaby
Luton Bowman PW203
A Fleischmann finale
performed by the very machine that started it all some 21 months ago
And a brief, steamy encore........
Thank you for watching.....
