Wanted Allen mogul/ tenwheeler

[John.can]

I'm looking to take ownership of a Allen mogul or tenwheeler or something similar. It would be my first steam engine which means I have no grease guns, tools, or anything. Pretty much square one. I'm hoping if I do find one that is operational and can pass hydro testing and fire safely. I've had some experiences operating coal fired and is my preferred fuel source. Hopefully I can find something. I live in the socal region which would be the preferred area to find or within one state of Cali. PM if you have any help tracking or might be able to help. Names John and I am a member of the Chula Vista Live Steamers.

Hi;
Are you still looking for a ten wheeler? I have one that I built althogh it is not strictly an Allen model. I used Allen cylinder castings and wheel castings to model it after a Southern Pacific TW-1. It is located in Stockton, CA. If you are still in the market i can send you some pictures. I have been a member of Golden Gate Live Steamers for 46 years and am a Life Member. Let me know if you are interested.

Thank you everyone for pointing me in directions or for offering your engines. I have decide to build my own and hope over the time it takes I get to meet people across the hobby.
