Muff Potter 0-4-0TVB - Dillon_Trinh - 12-21-2020

Muff Potter, built by RASS in 1983, not it needs a new boiler. Before then it was a regular locomotive.

Very cute. Forgive me as I couldn't see the engine well on that photo so I tracked this one down of the same engine without the roof. Almost it has a stand up boiler like a 55 gallon drum.

That loco seems to be very hard to find info about. Apparently, it's #11 on the Japanese Narita Yume Bokujo narrow gauge railway (a.k.a. the Makiba Line) and I forgot #7 Ginger was also on it. Having looked up the railway, I found some amusing Talyllyn/Skarloey similarities in the rolling stock that were unlikely to be a pure coincidence. Their #5 is a low hooded diesel shunter like Midlander (Rusty), and #6 is a red Douglas (Duncan) like steamer. Even #3 has (or had) a similar shade of blue to Sir Handel's Mid Sodor/TV livery.

Somewhat makes me wonder what our Welshman would say about it. Either way, #11 looks better with the roof. Thanks for showing it to us.
