An ideal passenger-hauling engine for club use, there's a full specification on Polly's website here.
We've sold a lot of Pollys over the years and really rate them. Powerful, reliable, easy to steam and simple to maintain - they've got a lot going for them.
In good order throughout with bright paintwork, this one's been through the workshop for full service, hydraulic and steam tests with new certification issued. It steams freely and runs well - there's a clip of it running in the yard this afternoon here.
The engine is supplied with starter kit of coal and oil, firing irons and 12 months warranty.
