Some models - some commercial design, others maybe not!

798 forum posts 27 photos | Gentlemen, Looking for some help in identifying the following if anyone has any ideas or info? First is a Stuart beam engine - not sure if the design has a name or number? Second looks to be a commercial item but I have never heard of "Signalling Equipment Ltd" Third I suspect to be a freelance horizontal mill type engine. Next is another horizontal engine. Then what looks to be a boiler occilator combined engine perhaps? From the pressed brick effect base I suspect this is a commercial product? Finally a Stuart Boiler a clue as to model number would be appreciated, its about 10" long. Thanks in advance for any info or ideas.

798 forum posts 27 photos | Thanks gents for the info so far, I shall check the tubes but suspect the boiler is either a 500 or 501 as I am sure it is not over 3” diameter. I shall research Bing and Stevens to see what I can find. Any other suggestions welcome! Stationery engines like these are well outside my knowledge base. Paul. |
