Description

The Model #45 “Candle Stick” engine was made from 1952 – 1955 and was never one of the owner’s favorite engines. It was a difficult engine to build and the lack of ready brass during the Korean war forced the use of steel for the boilers on most of these engines. The steel boilers are often pinholed by rust which caused problems with the sealed heaters. Finding a brass boiler #45 is a sure way of knowing you’ve found a rare piece.

This one includes an aftermarket cord.
Has some small dents and needs restoration, but comes with aftermarket cord. NOT TESTED *as is*
