Arthur Moore Memorial Stationary Engine Display

Status: Out of Service.
Brown Hoist Boiler Display
Builder Industrial Corporation Bay City Michigan USA BN 5249 36-28
Named after the late Arthur Moore former Operations manager who in the Societies early years was behind the building of this display.
The display is powered by the Brown Hoist Boiler built by Industrial Brown Hoist Corporation Michigan USA in 1928 and was used as the Steam Power Source of the former AI&S No7 Steam Driven Rail Crane. Following the crane’s decommissioning, the boiler was donated to the ILRMS. The boiler powers an array of industrial steam engines. Due to necessary repairs, the boiler has been out of service at the ILRMS for the last few years as the Society has been successful with grant funding by Transport Heritage NSW and is scheduled for restoration in 2026.
