Who made this little clockwork steamer?

Maybe American Flyer?

I have one that has been fitted with a four wheel Marx motor and red painted drivers. Looks good and runs well.

Congratulations on the find!  Any pictures of the motor?    Don't make it a paperweight, get a new mainspring from Clockworks.  I've had some clockworks with old springs that get brittle and break in multiple places... not common but it happens.

Hi, James.

I have given some thought to a new mainspring, but I don't really savvy clockwork very well!  I will try to put up a pic of the motor later.   Maybe I can enlist your aid in such a project.  

 Still wondering who made this one - it's don't feel like Flyer to me, but who knows......

Here are some pics of the motor sans spring.  Break works, and gears seem ok.  Bell spring is broken.

Yep, no wonder it doesn't feel like Flyer, because it is a Joy Line.  Wonderful little steamer!

I would be happy to help you out with the motor... my email is in my profile. 

P.S. - Thanks for the motor pictures!

Thought I would post a pic of this little fella after James worked his magic on it!  Runs very smooth, and looks pretty good parked at the station.  Looking for a tender and a car or two to keep it company.  

Thanks, James!

Always happy to help bring another windup back to life!  That is a nice looking locomotive.

Jack, a great little motor and a terrific restoration job by James, what a success story!

The Joy Line trains were made by Girard, which was then bought by Marx and continued to be marketed under the Marx name for a time.  Here is the tender that goes with it,

…and these are the passenger coaches:

The Joy Line has distinctive couplers.  There is also a wonderful freight set, each car with whimsical names: Eagle Eye Caboose, Hobo Rest Box Car, and so on.   They are something to keep an eye out for at train meets, and there are usually some for sale on ebay.  They can be a little pricey at times, but keep looking, they can also go cheap because a lot of people don't know what they are.

You have the early cast iron locomotive, which is the harder one to find.  The later Joy Line locomotive was a sheet metal (tinplate) shell, but used the same cars.

That's great to see the old thing brought back to life!   Congratulations on pursuing its repair.

Hojack, thanks for the pics of the tender.  Good to know what I am looking for!  

...it also came with an electric motor and working headlight.

Beautiful set, Robert!  

would this be the same found it for sale near where I work I think they want a bit to much for it.. 55.00..

No, that superstructure is sheet metal not cast iron.  It looks like it is an American Flyer Hummer locomotive.
