Antique huge German toy live steam engine model Doll 364/3 (not Wilesco Mamod). Condition is Used.
Please make an offer if you are interested.
Here is a Doll 364/3 steam engine from Germany from the 1930s. It is huge. I've included a nine volt battery to give you an indication of the scale of the engine.
Base plate 42 cm x 37.5 cmFlywheel diameter140 mmBoiler diameter 90 mm
große Doll 364/3, alte Ausführung:Grundplate 42 cm x 37, 5 cmDurchmesser Schwungrad... 140 mmKesseldurchmesser 90 mm
The engine was previously restored by someone long ago. What they did was to install a think brass plate over the original steel base. I think that was a good idea and makes the engine very sturdy. When I got it, I installed new o-rings and fixed leaks and the pressure gauge collar. I installed a Wilesco pressure gauge since the original doesn't work. I did so with adapters so the original can be installed. The whistle works and is rather loud.
Please watch the short YouTube clip to hear it running: https://youtu.be/4FvGIxgqooo
The lower pet cock drips a bit. The feed pump doesn't pump but I have not taken the pump apart to clean it or tried to get it going.
The original pressure gauge doesn't work. A Wilesco pressure gauge was installed with adapters so if the original pressure gauge is fixed, it can be reinstated. The burner I got with it is not original. I did not test that burner. I use Forest Classics burners so I had no need to try it.
The engine is sold as-is with no warranties and no returns. It is reaching 100 years old and isn't perfect. Please ask questions.
The 9 volt battery isn't included in the auction.
