DESCRIPTION OF CONDITION: The locomotive and tender are both in great shape. The loco casting is perfect, no breaks, cracks or chips. Both classification lights (often broken off) are perfect. No rust or missing parts, great color, numbers nice and clear. The tender too looks fine, no cracks, breaks or chips on the shell, lettering crisp and clear, and couplers in great, all the steps are there and they are perfect. No real issues here at all. Again, a great looking set that IMHO I would rate as in C-7, excellent condition but look at the pictures and you be the judge.
WORKING CONDITION: I have cleaned, lubed and tested the locomotive and it runs and reverses just fine, e-unit cycles perfectly and the smoke unit works. The whistle on the tender also works fine.
COMMENTS & QUESTIONS: If there is a problem, regardless of type, e-mail me and I will try and resolve it with you. I am both a TCA Member and LCCA Member and I do my best to describe each item accurately and my feedback indicates I usually succeed. I usually leave feedback once every 7 to 10 days and only after I have received feedback. You will ALWAYS be bidding on the actual item shown in my pictures. LOOK AT THE PICTURES, READ THE DESCRIPTIONS. You are NOT bidding on what you think the item should be or what you would like it to be you are bidding on exactly what you see in the pictures. Leaving negative feedbacks without first trying to resolve the issue is not to neither of our benefits. Again, take a good look at all the pictures (they describe the lot better than my words can) to see exactly what you are bidding on and judge the condition of the item for yourself. Please feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions on this item especially as it relates to it’s condition. Ask now, not after you have won the item! As is the case for almost all my auctions this lot is offered to you WITH NO RESERVE!
