This is a 1970s PFM - United imported model built by Atlas Industries in Japan. The box has moderate shelf wear and there are no spare parts. It's custom painted, with good work but some chipping and wear (check the photos). The previous owner removed the drive tube and added a drive shaft. Note that two spring hanger castings are loose but included. Lenses and figures have been added in the cab.

Using this model is easy. Just connect it to your analog DC power source and it'll start running well. But remember, it has a moderate motor/gearbox noise. When handling it, be careful as the two spring hanger castings are loose. Also, the custom paint has some chipping and wear, so don't be too rough with it. For maintenance, check the wheels regularly as minimal wear is already present. Keep an eye on the drive shaft that the previous owner added. Since there's no lighting, you don't have to worry about that part. And when storing it, use the original box and foam to protect it from further damage. If you're shipping it back for a return, make sure to pack it securely as we do when sending it to you.
