D3 Steam Engine
D3 – Vertical Steam Engine with Burner Gel (Export Version)
Important: This model is intended for export only and does not carry GS certification. It is not a toy and may only be used by persons aged 14 and older. Collector’s item.
The D3 is the smallest upright steam engine in the Wilesco range – now available in a new version powered by burner gel. A specially adapted burner slide ensures efficient and safe combustion.
Its most distinctive feature is the vertical boiler made of high-gloss polished brass, paired with an oscillating cylinder. Despite its compact dimensions (base 16 × 12.5 cm, boiler capacity 50 cm³), the D3 has enough power to operate one of our light-running accessory models.
