Boiler maker with initials DB

[John RutzenParticipant @johnrutzen76569]

Hi , I have recently acquired a 31/2 gauge locomotive which has a professional looking boiler stamped "Tested DB". It also has a number 22 stamped on it. Would anybody know who would have made it please? It is about 30 years old I would guess and has never been steamed.

Possibly David Bailey of Bracknell.

Hi, I had a traction engine boiler built around 1978 by Don Brook of Dewsbury he was a well recommended boiler maker and Model Engineer your boiler may have been made by Don,

Hi thank you for the replies. It's a pity more information isn't stamped on the boiler.
