This is what was in the box when I opened it

The problem was a new helper on the seller's end.Told her I would not leave bad feedback (and I didn't)but hoped she would do better packing from now on.Her responce was a full imediate refund and telling meb I could keep the loco if I wished.I did wish it took about 20 minutes to repair the loco to very smooth operation.I suppose I should mention it is a Mantua with a can motor all wheel drive.

Take a good look at that shell .It was tooled in 1961 and the only change from the origonal unit is it has nicely rendered plastic handrails.

Actually the whole reason for posting this is to show you that there are some very good dealers on Ebay. :mrgreen:

Yeah Jon, there are still those that value their reputation over profit. It's nice to know that you were on the receiving end of that kind of person. Cheers

We set up a test track at club Thursday night.After about a half dozen back and forth runs the loco mellowed right out and runs just fine. Thumbsup
