5 inch gauge Polly V 2-6-0T

A 5 inch gauge Polly V 2-6-0, one of the largest models in their range, its combination of power and adhesive weight ideal for club running or the larger garden railway.

The CE-marked boiler has had hydraulic and steam tests with new certification issued - particularly water-tight on hydraulic test, there was barely a drip from its fittings - we were impressed! The fusible plug has been removed, cleaned and inspected, the lubricator flushed out, serviced and tested.

A well-sorted engine which steams freely without need for the blower on the rolling road; it runs very well in either direction with crisp, even exhaust beats.

The paintwork remains presentable, with something of a patina of honest use about it - we'd leave it exactly the way it is!

Supplied with firing irons, a starter kit of coal and steam oil and 12 months warranty. If required, we would be pleased to include a half day's training in the firing, driving and maintenance of the engine.
