[SEL] Another Hunk of Junk

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Just got this one.  It needs some TLC but it will be worth the work.  
This is an early "Sumner" engine.  Later they were tagged "F.M. 
Watkins".  I don't know all the details but evidently Sumner began 
building the engines in Covington, KY.  Watkins either bought the 
company or bought the rights to manufacture the engine.  Watkins 
continued to make them in KY for a period of time after the 
acquisition.  Here are a couple of photos of the engine and then some 
accompanying info:

Here is an 1899 Watkins Ad (I think they used the Sumner engine 
engraving from '95):
