Steam Engines have fascinated us for centuries. Since the
1700's, when Savery and Newcomen first designed steam engines to pump water
from flooded mines.....and James Watt built the first engine that could turn
wheels.
From then on, steam changed the face of Britain. It was
the Golden Age of Steam - culminating in the magnificent achievements of
The
Flying Scotsman!
Mamod Working Steam Models recapture the excitement of
that era giving immediate enjoyment and fun. Fired from solid fuel tablets,
the boilers of Mamod models soon reach working pressure and you quickly
experience the joys of steam in action.
Constructed from heavy gauge steel and brass the Mamod
models follow traditional style and quality engineering of the original
steam pioneers such as Watt, Brunel and Trevithick, resulting in robust
units that will last for years.
Mamod's reputation for excellence has been built up over
50 years. All models are tested to strict standards, and safety valves
control the working pressure of all units.
The Mamod range is broad, and is complemented by Forest
Classics' own range of Mamod special and limited editions.
If you are seeking a hobby, that special gift or a unique
collection, these give pleasure to young and old alike and will be treasured
for life.
