Wilesco Steam-Powered Tractor D406

This steam tractor, painted in black and with polished brass accents, was modeled after an original Wilesco tractor seen in the early 19th century on our roads. The original tractor was used for agricultural and forestry work. A beautiful model for collectors.

Wilesco Tractor Can be Used Both Mobile and Stationary

The tractor can move forward and backward, powered by a flywheel that can be started in either direction. The boiler has a diameter of 45mm and a length of 185mm, and can hold 230 cubic centimeters. The brass boiler has been polished to a high shine and nickel-plated. The accompanying water level gauge is designed as a glass display, inviting you to take a close look at the steam engine's operation. The tractor has chain steering and a transmission clutch. The mobile steam engine can also be used as a stationary engine, thanks to the disengageable gear drive. The running time is about 15 minutes with a full load of our dry fuel, Witabs.
