OO Gauge live Steam Coronation

time is not my friend
I was recently fortunate enough to acquire a Steam Craft Live Steam Coronation. It required a bit of work but it has come back to life! Mr. David Taylor did an amazing job with these. This has a piston style cylinder rather than the wobblers that later Steam Craft product had. It is seen running on a hobby torch as the original burner and tank are missing. I shall construct replacements in short order.

This is great to see. David Taylor was probably years ahead of his time - I believe his 16mm scale Mountaineer had a good following.
I enjoy your posts as it amazes me how much British live steam seems to pop up in the US.
