Nauticalia

Traction engines were the mobile power source of the coal age, used to power everything from boatyard haul-out winches to farm machinery and fairground rides. The operating experience of our model is very authentic and, once the boiler is up to heat, the engine has sufficient torque to push the considerable weight of the whole vehicle along at considerable speed. The solid fuel tablets and lubrication oil are supplied - just add water! It is hot, and has sharp bits, so we're not allowed to call it a children's toy now, but it is certainly great fun.

For ages 14-140; we can't think of anybody who'd be disappointed. 10" long, weight 4-lb, precision engineered in England from heavy gauge steel and brass.

For further supplies of fuel tablets, please see ref 96263 below.
