Title: Cheddar Proteus Engine
Post by: DBS88 on August 16, 2024, 09:52:49 am
Over the last couple of years I have been gathering the parts needed for my next model ship build, most of which I  have. I am now looking for a Cheddar Proteus engine and pump. The model ship I am building is the [/size]ship that my Grandfather sailed on protecting the Atlantic and Arctic convoys during WW2, if you have a Proteus engine or know someone with a Proteus engine that would be interested in selling it please do contact me, thank you. [/color][/size]For interest and completeness here is a photo of the Black Swan Sloop HMS Wren which was part of the 2nd Escort Group protecting the convoys- this was the ship my Grandfather served on.[/font]

 Not with a horizontal boiler, but Jerry from Clevedon Steam offers a nice boiler that would go with it:
