Summary

Description
English:
Robey portable engine at the Great Dorset Steam Fair 2007

Robey 3nhp single-cylinder portable engine, no. 25961, built 1905.

Re-patriated to the UK from Australia, where it had powered a sheep-shearing station and then provided steam for a laundry. Here it is providing power for a Hayes Windlass Roundabout Ploughing Tackle at GDSF 2007.

This close-up is intended to show the damper (upper lever on chimney) and the ingenious worm-and-quadrant-gear mechanism for raising and lowering the chimney.
