Doll 344/6 and Hammer Mill No. 788

The video shows a Doll 344/6 steam engine with oscillating cylinder driving a Doll No. 788 hammer mill. In addition to the pully, which sits on the flywheel axle, the steam engine has a gear transmission with which drive models can be driven at low speed.

Funny to see all the similar-
ities compared to a Fleish-
mann 122/2 & 4.

All Fleischmann steam engines had predecessor models at Doll & Co. The Fleischmann 122/2 corresponded to the Doll 344/2.

Such a beautiful engine :)

[@juergen.hamers]

Thanks Jim. It also took some effort to make the engine look like this again.

@@juergen.hamers That's more than half the fun sometimes isn't it.

[@juergen.hamers]

@@SteamEngines-Jim Yes, that's how it is. I posted about the restoration on the Mamod forum. It was scary how the engine looked when I got it.

@@juergen.hamers I'll see if I can locate the thread...the millhouse is in very good condition as well.
