The Meg Wendy is an 0-4-0 industrial/quarry style steam locomotive. It was designed by Meg Steam Inc, of Victoria BC, who also supplied castings. Meg Steam Inc now appears to be out of business.
The Meg Wendy is typically built as a 7.25 or 7.5 inch narrow-gauge locomotive.
Castings are available from Wellington Foundry.
Blackgates Engineering offers similar locomotives, the "Sweet William" and "Sweet Pea".
Most Meg Wendys are design to use the Hackworth valve gear.
