Hello, I don't know if this is the right forum to post to but here goes.I have an old model made in the 1920s at my late fathers engineering works in Dewsbury west yorks. I think it may be part of an old mill engine. I also have a model of a coal cutting machine from the same era and two models made by my late uncle some 25 years ago one is a four cylinder engine and another a pump engine from a mine, though I am not sure. I have posted some photos of the first one with this forum. I would appreciate any help that anyone out there may be able to give. thanks in advance. Nick Hirst
