Due to on going work in the Chris Bowden building we’ve not been able to run the Crossley OE1 28 towards the end of last year and not at all this year so hopefully over the winter!

Here’s a video I took in 2025 of a visitor who use to run the Crossley when it was in its original location!

It’s a longish video but quite interesting!

Rolls Royce designed and built Wankel twin rotor diesel engine.

Today Friday we had it running again!!

Howard explains what has been done to the engine since it last run.

Rather Smokey to start with but on the third and final run the combustion and smoke was a lot less!
