Värtan

"Prince August" is the name of this elegant locomotive, delivered in 1856 by famous Beyer, Peacock & Co works in Manchester. After the loco is the king's coach.

Being an engineer or fireman on this locomotive must have been a challenge during wintertime and hard rain. Well, after all, it was probably not that pleasant to be a passenger either - two axles, short axle base and no heating.


other sizes: small medium original auto
