atkipete,
You should have said soomething last Thursday when you were here. No full size or photos but some Models. They are similar in layout to the Sentinal.

I hadnt seen that one but some good photos there. In my book (pardon the pun) the Aussie Atkinsons were the best of them all and I dont know why the UK company didnt pick up on some of their ideas.
Anyhow I found the WA Atkinson steamer. Well I havent actually seen it but I got an email from the UK telling me about it. It was a six tonner, owned by some company in WA. A bloke from England bought it as a wreck about 10 years back, shipped it back to Blighty and restored it at monunental cost.

Ken Whitworths steam truck was a Mann. And is now up NSW or QLD. It attended the Steaming under the souther cross rally at Jondaryan QLD couple years back.
As for Atkinson steam trucks. Can't help you certainly haven't seen one in real life (very few pictures). From what I have seen they are very similar in shape to Leyland steam wagons. Such as :-
Thanks Bparo for the photo!
