At auction is this HO Gauge Steam Locomotive and Tender. Item is made in Hong Kong by Tyco. Tender has "Chattanooga" markings. Loco has 0-8-0 drive configuration and has the number 638. Overall length (loco and tender) is 11 1/2 inches. Condition is generally excellent, but with one qualification. The motor (which is housed in the tender) runs great and the headlight in the locomotive works as well. However, I cannot get the drive wheels (which are also on the tender) to work. My own diagnosis is that there is a problem with the linkage between the motor and the drive wheels. Probably something simple, but.... Other than that, it is in excellent condition.
