5 inch gauge Polly "Trojan" 0-4-0ST - stock code 10174

A Polly "Trojan", their clever reworking of the well-proven Polly running gear into a very attractive small standard gauge type saddle tank.

About as close to a commercially built Polly as you'll get, expertly assembled and beautifully painted. It's come to us from a long-time customer who has built several Polly locomotives, including the Prairie we recently sold, another Trojan and a Suzanne that we had back in 2016.

In good order throughout, it steams freely and runs well - there's some video of it running on the rolling road here.
