Duchess of Kent and Steam Plant

[back to Brian Severn’s Models for Sale]

Brian spent many years designing and then building a twin cylinder steam plant for the large paddle steamer (Dutchess of Kent), I don’t know if it has been run but it is a wonderful piece of engineering in it’s own right. Clearly this would make a great project and complete the vision that he obviously had.

The Duchess of Kent and the steam plant are to be sold together… guide price: £700; contact scalecaptain@srcmbc.org.uk .

In the photos below, which date from 2006 to 2008, the model is being powered by an electric motor and has a smoke device fitted.  There is also a video is available on YouTube.
