Only two years later...Romeo has a new owner! The guy who bought it / her / him runs a museum some 35 miles away from the factory where it was built. Some TT-members* already visited the "Muzeum Starych Stroju a technologii" in ZAMBERK (Czech Republic).
In the museum there are already a number of rollers in working order and others. On youtube you can find some videos - if you type the name of the museum mentioned above. In the 2020 video there is a short video sequence with me on the helm for the last time. I´m a little bit sad, but I´m very happy that Romeo found such a nice place to live and a real good man of steam: Michal Bednar as new owner. Usually two working days / weekends in the museum are organised in June and September (exact data on the homepage of the museum). Lets hope the virus doesnt interfere with this!
Probably I will post some pics in the near future!
