2” scale Fowler A7 Traction Engine 

That just shows you the ingenuity of man. We need to get jobs done and then the race began. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come. The steam engines were so complex , I’m sure it will take most people in todays age a while to learn everything and how it all works. Super cool hobby.

What I’d give for one of these. My uncle had a 4” that I was allowed to drive around shows as he got a bit too long in the tooth to manage. Loved it, I just wish I had the funds and was clever enough to do it. For now I just love watching the people’s enthusiasm for their own engines. Brilliant video

No nonsense and very informative, Thank You!

what a lovley little thing, a real credit to the builder

Your wagon should be painted up to look like a coal tender. This thing is so cute!

This engine is awesome. A true work of functional art. Thank you so much for sharing.

That tiny locomotive moves faster than the full sized ones, and it's towing 100% of it's weight.

In the process of building a Fowler A7 2” so good to see the end result. Need to add a water lifter to the list now!

Nice video it gives me inspiration on getting on with me two inch Burrell.

incredible how strong that snall steam engine is ! wonderfull model !

It is a beautiful piece of art. I am impressed how gages and all functions is working even how small it is. I like you video. 🇧🇻

thanks for making this, favourite video of today.

Steam power is brilliant 👍.

Wow, love these

excellent vidio showing anyone who whould like to have a 2 model steam model and how to run them!

Never underestimate the power of steam

Beautiful little engine. I wouldn't doubt its ability to pull a car..

Fantastic video very interesting outstanding little steam traction engine well built someone went to great detail on building like to have one myself thanks

Fantastic video and engine

What a fantastic video ive stumbled on, very informative and straight to the points

Thanks for that excellent and detailed review 😊 That’s a wonderful model and I am thinking I really need one for retirement... despite some real complexity 😬

I just purchased a 3" A7, waithing for delivery now.

I love these models. I hope to own one someday

Fantastic piece of engineering, thanks for sharing 👍

7:50 - Based on the current gas prices, this seems as a viable alternative to my car...

GREAT SHOW THANK YOU

Excellent video! Thanks for sharing👍

A great video and a lovely engine and well explained.

I'm currently making this a7 in 2 inch scale

Excellent video

A very good video and tutorial, this. Thank you. I note that the ashpan and grate dropping arrangement is not strictly true to prototype, but it does make perfect sense (for ease of cleaning/fire disposal) in this small size. VERY GOOD, THANK YOU. :-)

Wonderful work of art.

super sprawa - dużo włożonej pracy ale i efekt naprawde do podziwiania

A great video. It's a fascinating machine.

Stupenda macchina.

Did they get the steam out of it the same way on the full scale model? That was probably very dangerous with all that boiling water coming out, was it ?

that looks fun

Love it

มันสวยงามมาก

OMG, as soon as I said Choo Choo at 7:49 the driver tooted the whistle! LOL!

Awesome. 💙 T.E.N.

I WANT IT!!! get me that locomotive. But sir you still haven't recovered from the last ti.. GET ME. THAT. LOCOMOTIVE 🚂

I am new to the steam world and I have a question. I’ve tried to look it up but it seems everyone has a different opinion. I’m going to build a little steam car. What are you using for steam oil. I have a displacement Oiler

i'd love to know if its at all possible to slip it tween first and second gear it would be a pain, but in 99% certain some one has floated from low to high gear

Wow

cool but how to get one of these? Also can you use just normal wood as fuel? AAAAAAND is it absolutely crusual to use different oils when oiling?

Hi how can you tell what scale you traction engine is

how do you run a engine out of gear

before putting the engine to bed did you let the fire burn low before pulling the pins out

I once fired my friend's miniature traction engine on BBQ charcoal. I didn't know the you could use it to start a fire in the firebox. I accidentally stoked the fire that he had got going and pressure went up and flywheel went around faster and faster. my friend told me off for doing that. it was when he was having trouble finding enough coal for his engine.

That in kit form would be a grate project

I wanna know how much one is that size

I’m home home

With a total ban on coal even these models wont be able to run.

Great video however not viewing again as your advertising is bad. Why do I want to wait 30 seconds to listen to a Detol advert…. amongst other things. Thumbs down. You are not for me. Kind regards.

This is a great technologies of Russian avtovaz

Love it
