This is an out of production vintage Mantua Chicago & Northwestern Railroad (CNW) Old Time 1880s-1900s Style Steam Locomotive and Tender 4-6-0 'Ten Wheeler'. Condition:
This model is in very good used condition. I see nothing broken, damaged, or missing. The motor cover is present. The wire railings are intact.
I test ran this loco and it works well forward and reverse. The headlamp works. I lubricated the main gear and the motor bearing and the loco picked up forward speed and quieted down so that it runs well for its age in both directions. These are hardy locos. I recommend proper and periodic lubrication for all operating locomotives, but this one will get you started right out of the box. The box is in poor condition with lots of wear and the label end is torn off. I taped it from behind and on top (it had been taped before with glossy tape). The foam model holder (seen in the photo of the box) is in good shape and does its job. The cellophane is old but intact. Comment:
This would make a nice addition to your Chicago & Northwestern Railroad collection or layout.
These are called HO but I believe they are OO, slightly larger than HO, the scale used in Britain (about 1:76 versus about 1:87).
This is a hard to find locomotive in my experience. We keep our models in an above-ground, conditioned, smoke-free, and pet-free room. Vintage models may have been stored anywhere before I acquired them. This model is out of production and no longer available from the maker. All that ever will be of this model are in the hands of dealers as old stock or in the hands of collectors. It becomes more and more difficult to find these models as time goes on. Be sure to get one while you still can, if you want one, or even think you will want one.For ages 12 and up. Do You Like This?
