Jinty Found-Thought Lost, info sought.
I have just un-earthed an 0 Gauge Jinty live steamer that I thought I had lost years ago after my first divorce.
I remember that I never managed to get it to work properly, if at all.
I have a feeling it may have been made by a company called Brunton.
It is a single cylinder, slip eccentric meths fired engine.
I know it is a long shot but does anyone know anything about these engines?

If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer!
Re: Jinty Found-Thought Lost, info sought.
Is it one of these: http://www.stationroadsteam.co.uk/stock ... /index.htm, made by "Burton Leech"? Remember running one once in a back yard in Aberystwyth. If so I note that Tony Willmore (Rhos Helyg) has dealt with a couple of these recently.Big Jim:87829 wrote:I have just un-earthed an 0 Gauge Jinty live steamer that I thought I had lost years ago after my first divorce.

Graham Stowell often used them for the basis of unusual locos.
