Alcohol Burner
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, April 4, 2006 5:10 PM
Hello, who can help? I acquired a Live Steam Locomotive 76 Aster (Nr. 607417) http://www.southernsteamtrains.com/old%20faithful.htm
Unfortunately the Alcohol Burner with three Wick Tubes and the description are missing. I want to build a new Burner. But I need a drawing or building sketch with technical data and/or a Link for this. With Aster Europe info@astereuropa.com I already inquired. They are really very helpful and inquire in Japan, so far however still without success. The Locomotive is already 30 years old!!!
On the Page http://www.southernsteamtrains.com/notes/oldfaithful.htm I found an interesting article.
Who have the Issue No. 47 (Vol. 8. No. 5) of Steam in the Garden or further Link on Page www.SouthernSteamTrains.com .

Thank you
