This HO gauge scale brass locomotive by Tenshodo is a vintage collectable piece featuring a 2-8-8-0 wheel configuration. The analogue control system and two-rail system make it ready to go for enthusiasts aged 17 years and up. The Great Northern branding adds a touch of nostalgia to this steam locomotive model, perfect for those interested in transportation-themed railway displays. This was recently found in long term storage. Needs neoprene/rubber universal drive coupling replacing as it sheared during test run, probably perished due to being stored (motor runs fine). Loco looks like new condition, probably never been used, stunning factory paint job. A low cost and simple repair job for someone who possesses the skills and knowledge. Comes with original box and foam insert, the foam has started to perish. Lower price because of this.
