Hello !
A long time ago , I've bought this engine to a good fellow that everyone knows in our Steam world ;  I named Giovanni !
(Giovanni , if you read me from your Costa Rica new homeland...  :-) )
He told me the name of the manufacturer who (is or) was in Germany , if I remember well ! But my memory and my lack of organization makes me forget who manufactured this engine.
Is it a ''W'' or a returned ''M'' on the sliding sleeve box's cover ???
Who can tell ??
If someone knows, please , tell us more !
Thanks !

Hi, a couple of years ago I was shown a similar engine, I was told by a friend that its a Wada Works engine and that the cylinder covers were turned upside down, so rather than them being seen as W, they became M because the German dealer that sold them name was Metafot. Hopefully, Giovanni, if he is looking in will be able to add more to the story

KBIO:
Good morning !
Thanks Dave ! Your comment sounds right ! I've heard such a story with match with yours and a German friend tell asomething similar on the Forum.!
Since, I do not understand why reversing the ''W'' to make think 'Metafot' .
Strange attitude ! %)
Have a good day !
