Description
PROTOTYPE
A total of 4 'Small England' locomotives were built by George England & Co between 1863 and 1867, and three remain in existence today. They will be familiar to anyone who has visited and ridden on the marvellous Ffestiniog Railway in North Wales. The "Small England" locomotives are synonymous with the Ffestiniog Railway and will make a very attractive and appealing model of a classic Welsh narrow gauge engine.

Very good product. Main body is iron with coal wagon is plastic. Ability to change couplings is a plus. Changed them to Arnold ones as many wagons/coaches I use have them.

Nineth month review. This is a delicate locomotive to be handled with care. Wheel side rods came off in my case when screw holding the roods came off. There are two alternatives to solve this. One is to find the screw and able to do repairs. The second option is to contact Peco as advised by Traintrax and ask for the new clip-on pins which are free. The latter worked for me. I would like to thank Traintrax for the support and guiding me in the right direction. Very good product.
