The engine is a double-acting noncondensing one that exhausts directly into the air with the familiar puff-pup of a donkey engine or steam shovel.With its 1 3/4" cylinder bore and 1" piston stroke, and with 75 or 80 Ib. of steam in its boiler, the little engine will turn over at 1,500 r.p.m. Actual power will depend much on the boiler used and on the workmanship in the engine itself. The design is for heavy duty, however, with main bearings and other working parts larger than scale, and the engine will stand up well under hard, continuous runs at full working load, developing enough power to drive a quite large model boat, a small dynamo, an air fan, or other light equipment of Fractional-horsepower rating.

Railways were by no means a new idea at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Wooden railways had been used for centuries in the mines of central Europe. In Britain, waggonways using wood rails were used in mining areas from the seventeenth century to take coal and minerals to the nearest riverside or, in later years, canalside wharf for onward shipment. Gradually the technology improved, but the speed of the waggon was still that of the horse that drew it.
This changed in the 1790s when Richard Trevithick introduced a light and small high-pressure steam engine. Then Trevithick built a steam locomotive for the Merthyr Tramroad in south Wales in 1804. Though the locomotive was too heavy for the track, it demonstrated that steam could haul a far greater load than the horse, albeit, at that time, no faster.
