A 5 inch gauge Polly V, an older engine in good running order, with brush-painted "working clothes" livery.

One of the largest locomotives in the Polly range, it's size and weight make it an ideal club engine, well-suited for continuous passenger hauling. Still in production, there is further information with full specifications on Polly's website here.

We've just fitted a new superheater, boiler has had hydraulic and steam tests with new certification isued. It runs well - there's a clip of it on the rolling road here.
