It runs good and the remote control unit sequences without any coaxing. About the Brass Buttons The AC Gilbert Company added a pair of brass buttons to the bottom of the driver chassis of all steam locomotives in 1946. The brass buttons were intended to work in conjunction with a track trip consisting of two metal contact strips.

The track trip was never made and the buttons were eliminated the following year . This is a consignment sale and being sold as is. If you have any questions regarding any specifics, please do ask.
