This is an earlier run PFM - United imported model built by Atlas Industries in Japan. The box shows some signs of shelf wear and doesn't come with the original packing material or spare parts.

It's a solid - running locomotive ready to shine on your tracks. Details: Brand is Brass PFM - United. Part number is not available. The condition is C - 7 Very Good.

Using this locomotive is quite straightforward. Just connect it to your analog DC power source and watch it run on your model railroad tracks. When it comes to decals, you can carefully apply them to the unlettered surface to make it unique. Here are some important things to note. Since the wheel has moderate wear and some plating wear, be gentle when handling it to avoid further damage. The motor/gearbox makes a moderate amount of noise, which is normal for this type of locomotive, so don't be alarmed. For maintenance, you can regularly clean the locomotive with a soft, dry cloth to keep it looking good. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the paint or the components. Store it in a dry place, preferably in the original box to protect it from dust and scratches. If you need to transport it, make sure it's well - packed as we've done originally to prevent any breakage.
