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.

 

Paul.

The SEL engine is a Major as its the twin cylinder.

The Stuart boiler you can narrow down by flipping it over and counting the water tubes.

I think the vertical boiler is a bing but could be wrong.

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.
