2 forum posts 4 photos	Hi, I am trying to identify a small steam engine and steam boiler that I bought from a well know auction site.. I can't find any identifying makers names on either item and the previous owner was unable to give me any information At the moment I have not tested the boiler but have tried the engine on compressed air - and it does run reasonably smoothly.
