Notes: Built 1961...for my 10th birthday!
This is the engine that got me hooked on toy steam. Simple oscillator, Esbit fired, metal base, built in governor, whistle...but no throttle. Boiler finished by a process called 'japaning'...a bluing of sorts. Fleischmann stationary steam engines were taken over by Wilesco in the early '60's...Fleischmann was the last of the early Nurembourg toy steam builders...some of their features still carry on in the Wilesco line to this day.
