Hello Petri its a great engine i have cleaned it all up now and is gleaming, i will steam it again running something of the same period and make as the Nora....Steve
Hello Stewart i am pleased with the run... i have given the engine a sympathetic restoration and nothing has been replaced in fact other than the burner it all looks original to me, even the spring in the safety is the original not bad for a 122 year old engine. its all polished up now and ready for a proper steam up running something.....Steve
Hello Jurgen the engine has been tested on a water wheel and worked fine. i have finished its clean up and the engine looks fantastic, i am going to steam it this afternoon running a Bing steam hammers from a similar age, i will post the video of it on here later....Steve

Nice job mate! To think that engine was made six years before the Titanic sank… incredible! I hope I look that good when I reach the age of 118.
Hello Mike it has worn well for its age....Steve
Your Bing „Nora“ is a great runner. Have you tested it under load?
