There's no difference between two cylinder, twin cylinder and double cylinder. Doll may use different names to cover up their cheating but nobody else does.

The only realy important difference is when it is a compound engine.

...thanks for the "linguistic" advice.
My compound ( ) still gives me some trouble (the water gauge replacement...).

Will we get to see her in action??


This new twin needs a new water gauge as well. But as the screw in the sockets seem to be rather tight I would like to fire it, but have realised that the feeder tap/valve is stuck in the "feeding" position and some of the pipes need resoldering.
So, Moose, it will take some time.
