In 1977, Samhongsa in Korea built this Key Imports model. The box has minimal shelf wear and some peeling on the front label. It comes with spare parts. The model features very good custom paint and moderate weathering. A coal load, glazing, and MV Lenses have been added. Note that one marker lamp is missing from the tender and some screws have been replaced - check the photos. It's a well - running model.

Using this HO scale Union Pacific 2480 Class 2 - 8 - 2 steam locomotive model is a breeze. Just connect it to an analog DC power source, and it'll start running. Since it has minimal wheel wear, it should run smoothly on your tracks.
When handling the model, be careful around the tender as one marker lamp is missing, and there are some replaced screws. You don't want to cause any further damage.
For maintenance, keep it in a dry place to avoid any more tarnish. If you notice the motor/gearbox noise getting too loud, you might want to have it checked. And always store it in the original box with the foam and paperwork to protect it. If you're shipping it back for a return, follow the shipping guidelines provided to avoid any issues.
