Twins were fun, but with 8 more inches of snow, it's still winter here, and time to post pictures of Triples. Anyone know what the smallest triple ever made was?

From the state of South Australia comes this Scott engine made at Mannum, a small river town. JL Scott & Son built stationary and marine engines there from about 1906 to 1910. The poor quality image is from a 1909 advertisement. Not a triple or marine, but the cylinders on this twin are identical to Bill's fourth photo. This one is slung under a railway workers trolley. Whether it was imported or made in Australia I do not know. The fly wheels are the trolley wheels, so it is pretty high geared. No clutch or transmission problems! http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc10/Antique_Engines/Scott-1.jpg http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc10/Antique_Engines/SARail.jpg |

The forth engine down is actually a Chase truck engine.
