Just spotted this, thought it may be of interest: http://ttfix.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/honourable-lead-boiler-suit-company.html

Can't actually find it on their website though  lol

Definitely of interest, but also can't find definitively, though there is a 'traction engine' under WWI. No piccie.

I know there are a number of diecast steam traction engines in 1/64. Probably not close enough for scale.
