Scooter Information

We were asked to develop a 7¼” gauge auto-trolley style locomotive for use on an agricultural garden railway. It needed to be...

• Ride-on
• Able to handle tight radius curves and bumpy track.
• Simple to maintain
• Robust
• Easy to drive
• Braked with a handbrake
• Powerful enough to move the spuds and soil and passengers
• Quiet operation
• Able to run at low speed efficiently
• Able to run at higher speeds when necessary
• Comfortable and safe driving position
• Able to run for 3-4 hours on single battery charge
• Reasonably priced

We covered all of the above and our customer was very pleased with the result

The Scooter is the production version of the prototype which lives on the Pell Wall Agricultural Tramway
