Well, She is still around today. She is currently in storage awaiting restoration. The frame and most of the major componintes are safely stored indoors. Really she is just waiting for time, manpower, and space in the shop before she can be tackled.

For a Forney I meant. Other ones are too small to sit on, at least the ones I've seen.

Very nice Forney type locomotive I'd say. These were inspired by the single Fairlies that worked on the narrow gauge lines in Wales.Β

No they were not. They whereΒ patented by Matthias N. Forney in 1861 as an alternative for short passenger runs. The idea being the locomotive can run tank first and not have to be turned at the end of the line. There is no relation between the Forney and the Fairlie in any way, shape, and form.
