What impressed me about the company, when it manufactured steam engines, was their business prowess. Before WW1, ca. 60% of their turnover was made abroad…seems unbelievable then.
Love these maintenance videos with the descriptions, thanks for taking the time to create them. Any chance of a ‘how to operate a steam road loco’ style video please?
Thanks for sharing!
More please.
Other makes are good, but fowlers have just got that majesty about them👍
I love it ! And Greta is screaming HOW DARE YOU !!! 😆
Had the cold boiler inspection on my Burrell today. Passed with flying colours. Soon be lighting the fire in her for the steam test next week
Excellent news, Peter. I should be in the UK at the end of June / whole of July. Let me know where Surprise might be and I‘ll try and visit her!
Magnificent engine, always liked Fowlers.
