This is an actual steam engine. It used to take water in the boiler, heated by a tray with fuel oil in it and it powered a type of anvil with a conveyor belt that is now lost. This was the type of toy from my childhood (where it showed up for Christmas one year years ago (!). Yes , a toy with oil fire and steam. What could go wrong?
Anyways, it’s now scenery on a table top. That large 40K type of building is a sub for ‘Fluffy LaTouche’s Tavern and Inn. Owned by the mother of General LaTouche that appeared in the last battle. That makes up the 3 names of my bloody cats that have shown up in the fluff.
In descending order, fluffy LaTouche (aka mittens) , ruby (as in Rubyville) and Stanley (as in Fort Stanley). Original? Not very but I was desperate for fluff names.
