Fact File

Our Ref	ECT713-518
Gauge/Scale	Finescale O Gauge
Manufacturer	Kohs & Company
Drive Train	Factory Fitted Motor & Gearbox
DCC/RC	The model has a unique DCC system located in the tender, alongside a 9V battery. Unfortunately - we're unable to get this working.
Model Condition	Near Mint
Box Condition	Excellent
Condition Description	The locomotive is in very near mint condition and appears to have only been lightly run. The two minor discrepancies are that the two water filler caps and chains located to the front of the loco are loose, but in a bag - with one completely missing towards the cab end. The box is in excellent condition with some shelf ware. Unfortunately, the box is missing original paperwork.
Track Test	Good Overall Runner \| Please See Notes
Test Results	When the model runs in forward, it runs very smoothly. Unfortunately, the loco is occasionally shorting out on what appears to be the brake blocks or some of the brass internal detailing
