Those twin cylinder Bowmans are rather nice, and that one's no exception
How many Bowmans do you have now Sandy _________________ Mike

Very nice unit, always thought of the M140 as an oddity since the engine was used in one of the Bowman steam launches, so they used in an engine too, bit bigger than the M158. Great buy! _________________

That certainly was a good buy, they're fine engines
A box with attached lid is an exceptional bonus.
I'll be steaming my 140 (amongst others) at next weekends show in Exeter _________________
