It is a SE2 which I think is superior to a SE2A, You should enjoy it Mirko. | ||||

Will do so! I was looking quite long for a nice mamod with that funny exhaust pipe thing
the only bad thing are the shipping costs: 7,50 GBP for UK shipping...

It is my heart's engine because it was my toy "when I was child"...
I still love it, but the original burner is missing, as the front cap. |

Its a nice SE2 Mirko, good price.
The SE1 and 1a have no whistle SE2 has a speed regulator handle at the start of the exhaust pipe. I dont think that SE2s ever had the solid fuel burner, my early SE2a has a vap burner like this one does The SE2a has the reversing handle, as others have said. Date wise its one of the last with the old style whistle, at a stab I would say early 70s edit heres MMs 5th one down, very similar late 1960s http://www.toysteambible.org/Mamod/SE2.htm
Where has Mamodman gone I wonder

From the Bible -
1965 Red Window carton for SE2. 1967 SE2A introduced Thus your Mamod SE2 is 1965 - 1967, with the Red Window Carton missing it's window material! Otherwise a nice looking engine, completev with burner, funnel & leaflet. SE2's did not have Solid Fuel trays, they were introduced in 1976 for export engines, and standard for all engines in 1977. |
