I admire the Victorian Era ,this fine working engine one of the many simple reason's. Without this era the World would have been much different. Thank you for sharing Harry.

Bonjour Harry, Je dois définitivement aller voir ce musée ! En attendant, merci pour le partage ET les explications. Amicalement, Raphaël

It's a real good thing to preserve cultural things like this engine and all that being a teenager - compliments!

Bon jour Raphael, merci pour les roses! Bolton est vraiment vaut le voyage, malgréque il m'a pris plus que sept heures á train aller et retour de Londres. Comme ca ne restait pas trop de temps pour le musée. Amicalement, Harry

this engine was in park street mill in radcliffe,i tried to get in several times,and after a while managed to get in and i bought the engine for preservation, i think i was sixteen at the time,it was about 1964.

I thought Elijah Galloway invented this type of engine in 1832 - true, his patent doesn't mention compounding or piston valves but the single crank self starting was the novel feature patented.

You're right, althought this engine was a 'high speed runner' with 120 rpm. It would be interested to see a direct comparison between a classic 90° two cylinder engine and this one. Greetings to Canada!
