Ransomes Portable. No.36030 single cylinder Built in Ipswich by Ransomes, Sims & Jefferies in1925. [not sure of the power rating, either 4 or 8hp ...] These engines can't be moved under their own power, and are towed by another engine, or a team of heavy horses to where they are to work, sawing wood or thrashing.
