Weeden Steam Store

The last Weeden steam engine was manufactured well over 50 years ago so there are not a lot of
parts remaining, too often engines are stripped for parts to rebuild the more popular models.
Hopefully these after market parts will help to preserve a few engines.
Purchases may be made through Paypal or with a major credit card.
Free shipping is only offered on orders from the USA and Canada.
Please contact me for shipping rates to other countries before ordering.

Drive Chain

To determine the size chain you need just cut a 1" length of wire, position it on a large sprocket so each end of the wire is at a gulley. Count the teeth above the wire, this will be the links per inch you require.

To my knowledge the only source of drive chain for the Weeden tractors is from:

Carol & Dallas' Antique Toys

The chain is listed under "Items for Sale" on their page.

Size 21, 6 links per inch,(72 per ft) .032 gauge steel wire, standard size for Meccano sprockets, not for Weeden Mobiles.

Sight Glasses

Replacement tubes come with a vinyl gasket on each end.

Installation instructions are included with each sight glass.

To check the length required remove the jam nuts on both fittings and check size of ports, if they are larger than 1/8" in diameter order the 1 1/8" long style as the sight glass goes inside the fitting. On fittings with smaller port openings the sight glass fits between the fittings so the shorter 1" glass is required.

Taps and Dies

Weeden threads for fittings on the boiler are 1/4 - 32 tpi, many fittings available for modelling are a finer 1/4 - 40 tpi thread. I have also included a tap for Mamod whistles and safety valves which is a British standard 1/4 - 26 BSF as these products are more readily available than the stock Weeden product.
