Condition Description

In very good overall condition. The model does not sit level on its bogies, and there are numerous chips to the paint finish. The coach interior also needs adjusting to align with the windows. The white metal bogies are slightly misshapen.

Test Results

The model does not currently run freely and would benefit from adjustment to the wheels/bogies.
