This

Flats Railroad in California. It is finely detailed with prototypical
paint and lettering. Both driving wheel sets are driven by a powerful
motor with ball bearings. It has a working headlight. A figure of a
locomotive engineer is included. Length over the buffers 28 cm / 11".
This locomotive was built by Baldwin and used until the 1940s

passenger cars are on display at the Orange Empire Railway Museum near
