There must be at least one or two in Ontario since we have steam engines very prominently displayed on every tractor pull.Beautiful machines but afaik they are not into card modelling.They have good size fan base making working metal models.

Dosser: Nijkerk has a nice small steam driven pumping station, still operating. They have no paper model. I have not been able to find anything that fits your description. Elfrink (Elfrink-bouwplaten ) has a steamroller: see his page diversen.
If you have any other information I will try to help.

steam machines...steam engines...steam vehicles
each of those cover a wide range of things.
you'll need to be a bit more specific.
if its Rail, you already live in the number one steam rail loving place in the world!

yes, there is a massive "steam" society in southern ontario.
farm and rail
a number of related museums and groups.
many centered around Port Dover area.

on the web, there are countless numbers of groups.
I am a member of this forum...they were helpful when I was designing my Autocar Armoured Car model.
https://www.smokstak.com/

probably none of this helps you since you are in the UK. sorry

In the Uk, stationary engines are a massive collectors thing.
I have a relative who collects them.
Has dozens...many are steam powered.
He regularly goes to Meets, but I'm not aware he is in any sort of club or society.
Maybe a local Meet could help you find what you are looking for?

Smile does anyone know of an association of steam machines

Hi! Guys
Back from hols.
Thanks for the posts.On checking after my thread, there is a slight edit regarding Pinterest,
To search on Pinterest you need to enter modelbouw instead of bouwplaten to look at these little gems.
Sorry
