An Early Ernst Plank Toy Steam engine with oversized flywheel

This early "toy" steam engine looks more like the work of a scientific instrument maker than toy maker Ernst Plank (Germany), complete with its original instrument lacquer and oversized flywheel.

Nice looking governor on this. Amazing we have these models from before 1900

I just purchased a odd little Ernest Plank that I dated to 1896.Had a broken flywheel that was repaired but I'm afraid to fire it fearing I may loose it
