Wilesco live steam engines

Most Wilesco products are very good, however the locomotive they made some years ago in a kit was a very flimsy product and not very capable of running.

My grandpa had a couple, but I have no idea what happened to them after his passing.

I have a locomotive and a stationary. The locomotive runs well but needs a little more tweaking when assembling

Here is mine. I have not used it in many years, but will not part with it.

Thanks to you all!  Another new find for me,  now I just have to pick one out for me and my Grandson................  cool stuff.

Here are some more photos of Wilesco items I have.A steam powered tool shop,a steam tractor and the box from the D16 stationary steam engine from the 1960s my Dad gave me.The artwork on the box is very impressive.Like Lionel's old advertising,Wilesco made their toys look larger than life.

I saw this fantastic Wilesco display in 2011 at the last Hobby Expo in Rosemont Illinois.The display featured a custom built factory filled with all the operating tools Wilesco makes in action.This was one of the very best hobby displays I have ever seen.

I have a Fleischman stationary steam engine. I don't know the model number. It has a water level sight glass, a pressure gauge (broken), and a double acting cylinder. It's missing the decorative speed regulator.

Mine is not in the best condition, but it works well.

I also have a small one that is missing its fuel tray.

I have found parts for other brands, but so far, nothing for Fleischman. Anybody have any suggestions?

Update: I think I found my steam engine on the web. Apparently its a Fleischmann #125/4
