It is a 1/3 scale model of the Cretors steam engine that was used to turn the drum on mobile Popcorn vending machines. The machines would apparently sell popcorn, roasted peanuts and perhaps coffee.

Great build Brian! This is an elegant looking engine...far more refined than many small models, but still a very simple build....I really like it

Hat's off to Stew and Brian! :bow:
