A unique and the only if its kind, a 6*Expansion Engine from Scottish-Dutch origin of 1890s. Currently being renovated by our group. Next week she will be tested by a torn engine. All works to be completed by Early 2016. She is originally used into a cargo-passenger ship sailed the big rivers. Pictures show all parts Pre -and Post renovations. ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine.png) ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine%202.png) ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine%203.png) ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine%204.png) ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine%205.png) ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine%206.png) ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16798045/better%20engine%207.png)

Neat. Do you know what you're planning to do with it afterwards? |

Impressive! How long had it sat idle before your group got your hands on it? I assume most of the parts are refurbished, too, with occasional machining of things beyond salvage? That's a lot of bronze bearing surface! |

Very interesting, thanks for sharing this. Who was the original manufacturer? |
