Leigh spinners Burlison private 01
Leigh Sinners engine. John Burlison sent ot to me and here's what he says about it. "The Leigh Spinners engine is in a better condition than the picture shows, but it has turned at least half of a revolution as the big end indicated when I visited the mill since a photo taken in 1988 by Chris Allen shown, the Yates & Thom revolution counter is still present, all steam gauges are present also attached to a mahogany board, but only one gauge is an original Yates & Thom, the alternator with ropes attached from the flywheel are still there in the pit of the rope race, the plan in the future is to run the engine on compressed air.
