Can you identify?

Hi all

I saw this model in one of Chuck Fellows youtube videos...
I am looking for any information about this model. I do not recognize it, casting, plans or from scratch. It has a name plate, but i cant make it out.
From the video description it looks as if this was at the Portland GEARS model engine show in 2012.

Here is a link to the video:

Could it be his recent Bessemer engine?

Dave, this isn't a video of one of my engines. This is a video of an engine that was at the GEARS show last September. I don't recall the name or the builder of the engine.

That is a Callahan from castings supplied by Harry Cooper. My buddy built one some years ago and it is a real nice runner.
It has some interesting features; ported exhaust, vertical fly ball governor and cam stopper side shaft. Sadly I don't think the castings are available anymore.
Here is a picture of my buddy's engine shortly after he painted it and before it was mounted on the skids.

Alright I received an email back from Harry Cooper (Cooper Tool & Machine Co.):

"YES JORDAN,BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY COMPLETE KITS AT THIS DUE TO PROBLEMS GETTING CASTINGS.CHECK BACK IN A FEW MONTHS. THANKS, HARRY R COOPER"

So, he did not say for sure which casting will be advailable, but hopefully Callahan will be one of them!
