3 1/2 inch gauge Edaville #7

Parts, castings, erected frames and boiler material for a 3 1/2 inch gauge "Lucky 7", Don Young's super 2-4-4 Forney design design based on the Bridgton & Harrison Railroad locomotive, now preserved at the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Collection.

Modelled on a large two foot gauge prototype, this comes out as a very large locomotive in 3 1/2 inch gauge - I have painful memories to this day of the time Steve and I took one to the Harrogate Model Engineer Exhibition and the struggle we had getting it on and off the stand. At 300 pounds plus, it's a job for two strong men and a pump-up trolley!

If you can't bring to mind what one of these looks like, there are some pictures of a good one we sold back in 2015 in the archive here.
