Comments

Model painted, with trailing wheels made of metal and possible current picking by catenary. For this, there is no switch, but a simple tongue penetrating into the body, to which a wire should be soldered.

Working (very noisy). Weak front lights: under 12 V, the miniature bulb lights little. The design with the very high pivot point means that the motor bogie has a strong tendency to rear up.

The box is present, in good enough condition, but without internal wedging.
