Pick these castings up at the clubs annual auction.

They are off a inside valve loco, no one could say which one though, also one cylinder cover is missing but that can be easily fixed, they have a part number cast into them its 3/102 anybody recognise them.


No one wanted them, but I think they were looking at them as loco cylinders, but the more I stared at then the more they stared back and said make me into a twin cylinder vertical marine engine.

Got them for £1 :big: :big: :big: :big:

They look like they should be well aged.
Great find, be sure to do a build log on them.

Thanks for you're interest Guys

I've found out that they are for Martin Evans' 3 1/2" Rob Roy:- Reeves sell the cylinder castings for £90 a set, so I can't go rong at £1.
