Stationary steam engine models and kits are great educational tools that can be used to illustrate how different types of engines worked. There are many different types – characterised by the layouts of the engine itself, and the power source that the individual model uses. This includes fuel, tea lights, steam turbine and some models are full workshop combos where the engine powers a variety of accessories. The fuel source generally powers a static steam boiler which can then power workshops or accessories.
