The Portland Company constructed 0-4-4 Forney #5 in 1891 for the Sandy River Railroad. The locomotive was named N.
Neal and operated this way until 1908 when the Sandy River, Franklin & Megantic, Philips & Rangeley, along with their respective subsidiary railroads merged to form the Sandy River & Rangeley Lakes. At this time the loco was renumbered to SR&RL #6. In December 1994, an agreement was reached with the estate for WW&F #9 and its return to Maine for eventual restoration.
Over the course of several years the loco was restored and is now featured in regular excursion over a restored section of the railroad. 7/8ths Scale / 45 mm Gauge. Brass & Stainless Steel Construction. Ceramic Butane Burner (Requires draft fan to start firing).
