Wilesco Old Smoky Steam Roller D365
The Wilesco Old Smoky Steam Roller
We have been producing the Old Smoky steam roller in this form since the mid-1960s, it was the first mobile steam engine model in the Wilesco program.
This model of a mobile steam engine was modeled after a widely used steam roller that served in road construction until the 1950s of this century.
The color scheme has not changed since the 60s!
Steam roller that can be used both mobile and stationary
Walkway, chain steering and transmission coupling are standard details of our Old Smoky. The coupling - operated by a rod to the left of the cab - enables the steam roller to also be used as a stationary steam engine. The Old Smoky with its 230 cc boiler is powerful enough to pull accessories in mobile operation and drive drive models in stationary operation. The aluminum roller wheels of this steam roller are anodized and painted.
For indoor and outdoor use
Our Wilesco steam roller D365 is suitable for both outdoor and indoor use. Because the Wilesco D365 has a flywheel that can be started in both directions, it can drive forwards and backwards, and the steering is controlled by a steering chain. During operation, the steam roller's chimney smokes realistically. The running time with a charge of original Witabs dry fuel is approximately 15 minutes. When using other dry fuel brands, the running time may be slightly less.
Steam roller also available as a kit
We also offer the D365 as steam roller kit. This kit (D375 / D376) has the same "features" as the already assembled steam roller. With this kit, you will experience firsthand how steam engines are constructed and work step by step on the combination of all the individual parts. The kit can also be easily assembled by inexperienced steam engine enthusiasts, thanks to the detailed, richly illustrated assembly instructions. The approximate time required to assemble the steam roller is three to four hours. If possible, it is best to assemble without interruption. All individual parts of the steam engine have been carefully inspected before leaving our steam engine factory. Please note: the kit of our Old Smoky steam roller is not available in the black / nickel color combination!
