The Allen 4S12 Marine Diesel Genset model was set in a ship’s engine room layout, in a glass display cabinet.
The model was made in 1960/61 and first appeared at the Indian Industries Fair which was held in New Delhi November 1961. A scan from the Allen Magazine No 53, the black and white photos show the model in build.
Having been in storage for some years the model and case deteriorated. During 2023 the model was fully restored and repainted by WHAEA Heritage Officer Phil Mann. Complete with a new case, the model now located in the offices of Allen Diesels in Bedford.
