Live Steam Collection Specialists
Engineered Live Steam Locomotives, Plant and Showman's Traction Engines have been an integral part of our Collectables Auctions since the introduction of these sales in 2010.
We specialise in the consignment of large private collections and have a substantial database of both Trade and private buyers, the market is particularly bouyant at present.
If you have a single piece or number of potential items for auction our Specialist Valuer John Morgan would be happy to talk you through the process of valuation and auction sale.
