Coming on well, the decal on mine is red... On my 202 its blue... and the 203 its cream. These are nice engines and well worth the effort in restoring, if particularly bad. Im a great fan of them, keep the pics coming! | ||||

they look very nice Mike you are lucky you have the burners for yours I have one more pw 201 same progress
and now pipe work done painted red just need to do the base cut it to size and paint it 
|

They'll look very nice once done, esp with a proper decal. Keep yours eyes out for the 202 or 203, both worth the money and a great additional to any afficionado of English Toy Steam. | ||||

You are having a new base made? | ||||
| steam123 |
well cut to size as the other on the base is too big. |

Is that from a Mamod flat base? |

That 201 looks familiar - hasn't it been featured in another thread somewhere..............?
Beauty (and value) must surely be in the eye of the beholder. Must get on with those L5's.
