Handsome looking engine trials! So nice to see it festooned with the high-crown bolts. Again- keep those neat photos coming...

Thanks for the interest guys, they are pretty engines aren't they
Too bad we have to stick with such small image files on this site, but I will post up some of the better pics when I get the chance.
I seem to have a ton of photos that feature non-distinct marsh and shoreline that likely represent how Toronto Harbor and Ash Bridges Bay actually looked in that era.

Left side of 3 cylinder 4 stroke T.L.Southam engine, what a cool motorcycle engine that would have made

I will be scanning and posting images to my Photobucket pages eventually, but so far I have not scanned the photos in high enough quality to warrant it.

Kinda new and just getting started at this stuff.

I've never seen a T.L.Southam in the flesh so as to speak, but I have seriously been considering a scratch build motor of my own. Looks like I might be starting with the propeller and working forward so far ;)
