How’d I miss this!? I love tinkering with stationary engines like this. Super creative and super fun. Love the lights!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊

Terry, I had a lot of fun with this project. Thank you for commenting. -Steve

[@johnknippenberg-LandmarkYards]

Ingenious idea, cool build. 💯

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

Thanks John, I had the idea for a while but finally got it done. Now I have to try and move things around to fit it in.

Wow a power station that generates power.

[@gusshadleythelunaticfromar7125]

Little smoke on the water there.

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

Thank you Guss. It took some trial and error to find a DC motor and LED light that would work at low enough RPMs.

I’ve been fascinated by those since I was a kid! Hopefully I will find one at my price point someday 😂

They are fun to operate. Thank you very much for commenting. -Steve

Hello Steve, I used to have Wilesco steam engines, they powered devices. I didn't have a generator. Very nicely shown, a beautiful machine. I sold mine for the garden railway. I wish you a nice weekend and best wishes, Wolfgang

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

Wolfgang, they are interesting and well built. Thank you for your comments and best wishes. Have a nice weekend. -Steve

[@huntercoleman460]

Amazing Steve.

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

Thank you Hunter, I appreciate you comments.

[@jlebaron1]

that's totally cool Steve! I have several mamod steam engines my granddad gave me. We get them out once in a while and fire them up. Never thought of hooking a generator up to one! We've timed one of them at around 1800 rpms so I can see why they'd be up to the task.

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

If I remember Mamod Steam engine were made in England. That is so cool you have that from your Granddad, very special and it still operates. It was a fun project and thought the smoke would look like steam. Thank you John for your comments.

[@jlebaron1]

@@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901 yes they are and pretty sure Grandpa sent away to England to get them. I remember it took quite a long time for them to arrive. He gave me three of them including a steam tractor

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

@@jlebaron1 A steam tractor sounds so cool. It would be neat to see them the next time you are running them.

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

…one more thing, I’ve never thought of using the flywheel itself for the band to power a generator. It would get more spin out of the dynamo. Thanks for the idea.

[@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901]

Yea, the flywheel provides higher RPM's. I have other Wilesco Engines. Thank you Terry. -Steve

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

@@stevesoscaletrainchannel.1901 do you steam them or use compressed air?
