Default Some photos as requested

Here are some of our engines. Will try a couple to see if I can figure out what I am doing. Let me know if these are okay and I will add more if you like these.


One shows our 3hp Crossley Atmospheric engine and a Wayne Grenning model of the engine in the foreground.

The other shows our Gardner 4t5 engine (large 2 stroke diesel) being run for visitors.

The black and white one is the largest single-cylinder Doxford engine when it was being fitted at South Shields college. it is now at the museum in pieces awaiting restoration.
