I have acquired a part built 1 1/2" scale Fowler showman's engine. Much of it is fabricated, but the parts include some castings, notably the fly wheel and compensating centre. Does anyone know if castings and drawings are, or were ever marketed for this engine? I can find nothing in my searches. It is the drawings that I am after. Thanks,

Maurice

Possibly an Every or Simmonds one but I don't have any drawings.

Maurice not my spelling correction.

A. J. Every and Dick Simmonds & co

I have an advert somewhere which lists the engines they did.
