Up for sale is the somewhat rare, long strip version of the 746 Norfolk & Western Class J Northern style steam locomotive and whistling tender. Both the steamer and tender have been thoroughly cleaned, serviced, tested and operate perfectly including the three position e-unit, smoke unit, illuminated headlight and whistle. Additionally, the wheels on both units have minimal signs of wear or usage plus the locomotive's front pilot is in great condition and free of nicks and paint chips commonly seen on the pilot when used on a layout. Lastly, both the steamer and tender are free of rust and oxidation, the external colors are vibrant and the side lettering is crisp and complete. The only apologies on the units are some paint rub marks on the rivets on the tender and a couple of very, very minor paint flaps on the steamer. Overall condition of each item is very close to an 8!
If you're looking for a hard-to-find, premium locomotive and tender to be the centerpiece of your display case, this can easily be the one you are looking to purchase.
