Bought this a couple years ago, it arrived to me broken cosmetically. I have made rapiers to the loco details and fixed some running issues it has had. (The chassis is a replacement chassis that wasn’t in the best condition originally.)

Although the box says DCC FITTED it is not the case. The loco does have a decoder but I have removed this and fitted a blanking plate to the socket which is located in the tender, so that wiring repairs could be carried out. The decoder itself is still with the model and can be fitted if desired.

The repairs are as follows:

- Cosmetic details repaired (Chimney, roof shutters, some pipes and cab supports.)

- Spare details added (New brake rigging and pipes from a Bachmann 4mt detail pack)

- New loco to tender connection

- New gears replacing broken gears

- Loco run-in

I have also fitted the loco with animated screw-link couplings. The loco has been TESTED and runs well, quite wobbly on the rolling road but runs smoother when on track. it has also had an oil and run-in. The loco to tender plug wiring maybe a bit long so this will need to be tucked away some how before running the loco so it does not catch on track detail.

The loco comes with original box without the fixed supports that keep the loco from moving around while in transit, which is why it was broken in the first place. I will come up with an alternative solution for keeping this loco safe while it is in transit.

Although I am accepting set offers, I’d really appreciate it if you consider the listed price for the locomotive based on what I have had to do to repair this engine.
