Reduced!!!! I am including a used replacement safety lever that I took off another old Weeden Engine. See the added Pictures. Weeden Toy Steam Engine Model 7 ; Made from 1890-- 1907 in New Bedford, MA. Sold in the Youth’s Companion catalog. Rarity #4 –“Scarce in better than average condition” according to the Hal Swann 1994 “The Weeden Manufacturing Company” book. This Engine has a whistle with a round turn handle, and a steam line with a round turn handle. The linkage is different from most other Weeden Engines. The parts move, but needs some work to get tuned up. I think all the parts are t and in good condition. The flywheel has one spoke broken and gone. The flywheel shaft has a double pulley on the flywheel shaft. T is a brass colored pointer above the cylinder/piston that is connected by a metal link to the flywheel shaft. The safety lever base is broken off and the weight and level are missing. T is a door on the back end of the fire box below the boiler. The top cap of the whistle is missing as is the burner tray. The cylinder/piston and flywheel supports are mounted on a brass looking rectangular part. The sides of the fire box had the imprint of bricks. The boiler end had the imprint of a steam gauge in the metal. Flywheel diameter is 1.8”. The boiler is 1.7” in diameter. Base is about 4.4” X 5.6” -- overall 4.25” high. read more
