Ive been building and messing with computers for a few years now, looks to me like a basic computer case fan, readily available and cheap enough that it wouldn't matter if it only lasted a few weeks!

This is the first time we have Run it on coal and were very impressed with the results. despite a leaking blower valve it still ran well.

Same oilcan and Black & Decker Workmate that I used to use when I ran my Mamod SE2A as a lad.

Beautiful!

With pressure at 60psi and plenty of volume I am starting to think the pistons may be missing, it pays to be very careful when buying from a stranger when they tell you that it runs very well, it looks nice on the shelf though.Thanks again.

you guys should have a cable and a miniature plough made for this thing

@colinthedj123 Yes it sure does, it has a scale one on the back and a hidden one underneath for pulling larger loads!

you can also find acceseries ther like the shovel ,blower fan and poker parts nuts,bolts whistles ect.its like a big hobby store for live steam modeling

Yes it does and we are hoping to source a scale cable to go with it!

Good news, you can now buy some of our products direct from accucraft ride on in the US! including this Fowler! Al

I wish I had one.

A credit to you,very very nice.

The regulator on this prototype has been re designed on the production models to give you a much more control on the power, once they are run in you can get it to rotate slowly.

@Axbent yes apparently that is true, you should use rain or tap water!

Yes , a great job getting her moving, “ top Hat “

We are starting with charcoal soaked in lighting fluid and then running on anthracite. We sell the correct size fuel in 20KG bags for running this engine.

How do you set your water pump to fill the boiler?

Do you recommend little and often with firing?

Is it welsh steam coal by maxitrack you are using?

What coal do you use?

what coal do you use?

how did you light the charcoal

Where do you get those coal shovels from?

is that motor to draw the air though the fire to steam it up quicker

whats in the glass jar at 0:13

so where can i find one of those heat resistant fans to draw the fire? anyone who can help let me know

@Axbent no they run on any water, rain, tap, river you name it!

Are you firing with anthracite or bituminous coal?

hi i have just brought one of these and i was wondering were you got your shovle quick responce woud be apreceated

how long does this take to get into steam from cold and like how long does the water last in the tank and how do you put the water in the boiler is it with a injector or pump and would this be ideal for pulling small things along using the drum winch

What a amazing engine. really liked watching it. How about using the flywheel and powering something? Thanks for sharing it with us. Get steamed and steam on! I do not have a 1" but with my Momods and Wilesco's, I would question using tap water. I use distilled water myself, being that tap water really builds up deposits in the boiler, but it may be different in the 1".s.

hello there i own a 3/4 inch allchin and would like to get the water filling that you showed 1:00

were can i get an inexpensive coal or butain steam tractor online or in the us?

@maxitrak can it pull peeople? Thank you

What size is your coal?

thuroghly impressed, now make a 1942 john deere A model

has it go enough power to pull a person

@TractionAlex i think its about £3500

Is this a compound engine?

Great little engine! What do you soak your charcoal in?

great video and engine how much do they cost new

I have a 1" Fowler and have tried to run it on air with no luck, any help would be of great help. Thanks.

where can you buy these??

I should have said my 1" scale Maxitrak is up for sale, valves need timing.

Now THAT'S an rc car! Er, traction engine!

How much does this engine cost?
