"And the engines came, two-by-two" were the first thoughts in my head

Nice collection.

What's the one down in front by the buffing wheel? Has the fancy stack and the black brick firebox. Stood out for me because it's the one thing that doesn't look Mamod
Though the red base certainly does...

XL...you are indeed a lucky man!!! With Graham-Jilly as another pro steam couple, this couple steaming thing is beginning to look a bit like an Ozzie exclusive!! Perhaps it's something in the water!

Good to have you both with us, and enjoyed seeing your sizeable collection.
cheers,
Roger
