Description
Up for auction is a very nice MTH #3421 Santa Fe 4-6-2 USRA Heavy Pacific Steam Engine & Tender. I believe, based on limited research, that the MTH item number is20-3008-1. This model was made in Korea. Full featured locomotive with good detail. From the box, the list of features includes:
1/4" scale detail and dimensions
Measures 24 inches in length
Weighs over 11 pounds
Operates on O-31 track
Available in 4 realistic paint schemes
Die-cast boiler, chassis & tender
High performance Pittman motor
Works with any standard AC transformer
Cab interior detail with engineer figure
Constant voltage headlight
Operating smoke unit
Operating marker lights
Operating firebox glow
Remote controlled protocoupler
Precision ball-bearing equipped gear box
Operating tender backup light
Real coal load
ProtoSound Digital Sound Package
My test track is quite short so I was unable to test full run features, but the locomotive started up as expected with chuffing and bell rings, all lighting worked (headlight, marker lights, interior cab light, firebox glow), sound worked (chuffing / bell), smoke unit worked, and the engine started up when throttle was applied - but as noted, I could not run it for any distance. Also, there is a new rechargeable battery in the tender as replacement to the original. Based on the wheel condition, it appears this model has nearly no runtime. However, the rubber traction strips are splitting so should be replaced. Original box is in good condition with some minor shelf wear. Original styrofoam packaging is present although a few pieces are split. Overall a very nice, large MTH model. Please see photos to assess condition. Ships only to the lower 48 states, no P.O. Box shipping addresses, no returns. Good luck.
