Condition Description

In excellent condition overall, with a few minor marks to the paintwork around the bunker and some corrosion to two of the buffer faces. The model is slightly nose-heavy, with the result that the (compensated) trailing wheels are not always in motion when the loco is running. Only the rear buffers are sprung.

Track Test

Very Good Runner

Test Results

A very good runner overall (with the trailing wheels issue noted above); slight hesitation at low speed.
