There's also a single-stage air pump/ compressor by the same seller. Both of these claim to be from a now closed engine house in Maine. http://cgi.ebay.com/Railroad-Steam-Locomotive-Air-Pump_W0QQitemZ6626757070QQcategoryZ4124QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem TJG |

I was getting ready to say "I'm going to be sick," but the reality is that at least the parts are being made available for re-use instead of going to the smelter. A bad situation, but at least some things are being made available. Pardon the ignorance, but is any of Belfast's original steam left? TJ |

I wouldn't be upset. Museums trade parts all the time, and I don't think these appliances would fit B&ML's only steamer, a Swedish import. |

BML's last original steamer, no. 19, was scrapped about 1951, about the time engine 52 arrived, the last new 70 tonner. The 1149, the Swedish steamer has a 6 feed mechanical lubricator on it. You could adapt the Nathan lubricator to fit, but it has a spare lubricator from Sweden, along with a spare air pump. |
