Bought loco set brand new at a train show a few years ago. Never run or unwrapped from packaging except for operating condition testing before these ad photos.
DRGW Locomotive paint scheme: Aspen gold, aluminum sides separated by 1 black stripe reflects 1961 thru 1970’s era prototype operation. (UtahRails.net site: referenced)
On a scale 1-10: 1 being whisper quiet, 10 being very noisy this engine set rates 3 for noise level on Kato plastic track roadbed when operating. There is a mild “hum” when engine set is resting on track with power on but throttle is set at zero. PA1 headlight works. Unit set functioned/ran good both directions when tested on 3′ section of straight track. Both units did not operate lightning fast when power was initially introduced; however, the longer I tested unit operation the better the motors performed. That said, both motors may need to be cleaned and re-lubed for better more efficient operation as both have been stored idle since originally manufactured in China.
DCC: no mention of such in literature accompanying units, no mention on jewel boxes. Ask someone knowledgeable who is familiar with DCC apps whether Life-Like units can be modified if such is desired for loco operation.
Set comes with individual unit part sheet, both units have original inserts, jewel boxes, alternative add-on couplers.
Item weight/specs: 1.0 lb. total tare wt.; engine set box layout is 7.75″ x 3.5″ x 1.25″.
Sales tax: as I understand it as of Jan.1, 2019 eBay sellers have no control whether to charge applicable taxes or forgo the process. Certain states are coming on board for electronic sales tax collection via eBay itself.
Returns: you don’t like it, item didn’t match description: you have 30 days to send item back for full refund. However, Refund of sales tax collection, if collected by eBay, will have to be dealt with by you via eBay or your respective state of residency department of revenue. Since I do not collect the sales tax myself I do not have access to it to refund on returns.
Free Shipping domestically.
