[BCMA] Artifact offers to BCMA museums

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Burnaby Village Museum has been offered a Railroad Speeder engine.
 
It is made by Fairmont Railway Motors Ltd., Toronto Canada
 
The details are:
 
Rated HP 5
Type OD
Group B
Special P
Max HP 8
Engine Number 81466
 
Looking at the WEB it would have been used in a model M59-B, or M19-C
type speeder.
 
The donor says the engine was running a couple of years ago.
 
The donor also has an "Iron Horse" engine in nice shape. It has a kick
start and would have been used in something like a non-electric washing
machine.
 
The details are:
 
Maodel AX 479
Serial number 231249
Horsepower 5/8
 
I have images of both engines if you would like to see them.
