Hecton M61 Model Steam Engine

Short video of a Hecton M61 model steam engine from around 1922-25. These engines were made by The Hobran Engineering Co. Ltd in the UK, and the same engine was also sold as a Swan M2.

Superb. It runs very well, much better than mine, and looks great

Thanks John, I found that it needs to have the burner flame set a bit on the hot side to keep the steam supply up to that oversize piston.
