This engine is ont bay – looks good – ium looking for a workhorse to bench mark boiler improvments. Twice the bore and stroke of a D10 if info is correct and has an A cast into valve chest sides – is it a cheap rip off or a legit motor?

It's not one I have seen from Engineers Emporium, their steam engines are bigger and mostly have B for Beaver on them except for the largest which is the Guy compond

Not really my area of interest, but …

Could it be that the supposed 'LA' is actually '4A'

?

Missed the end as I was half way through a silver solder.,…went for £260 ish which was a bargain, assuming its any good. Would still like to know where it originated as to me it looks nicer than the D10.
