Now in stock .

I found it will not couple up to Kadee wagons, 

Note; for a closer Kadee height change to a No147 whisker coupler.

The tender bogies do swing, it runs well and will run without the tender attached to the locomotive.

For DCC; a non sound micro decoder will fit in the locomotive.

For sound the decoder will have to be passed through to the tender and speaker fitted. 

Enjoy, Joe
