I tested this loco on 11/8. She runs remarkably smoothly and with no hesitation in both directions. While she has been sitting dormant a long time, she has great bones and is a handsome consolidation. This is an oil burner. With some light lubrication and perhaps a little cleaning and break-in, she will become a great runner!
Box and foam in excellent shape with minor signs of shelf wear from storage.
All Brass Locos tend to need a little TLC no matter what their condition, especially older models such as this, but she has really good bones! Purchaser assume responsibility for lubrication and break-in and any mechanical adjustments when running. All brass sales are final and AS-IS.
