One of the ever-popular 5 inch gauge Pollys - this one a Polly II, the 0-4-0 with tender variant.

In good condition, the engine has had new motion pins to the valve spindles and expansion links. It runs well, there's some video here of it running outside the works in the sunshine yesterday.

Boiler was commercially made by Priory Boilers, it's had recent hydraulic and steam test with certification issued.

Some of most popular beginner's engines we have sold over the years, Pollys have a good combination of performance and reliability, making them pretty bullet proof. Still available new, there are full details of the specification on Polly's website here.
