HO SCALE * CUSTOM HAND WEATHERED/ WRECKED / OLD ER MODEL SANTA FE DIESEL ENGINE HAULED BY UNION PACIFIC FLAT CAR # 8761 with WEATHERED METAL TIE DOWN CHAINS (Wrecked, crashed, and weathered by my Train Enthusiast Husband! Trains have been his hobby for over 40 years). *We have MANY other wrecked/weathered cars listed on E-bay, if you'd like to view our other listings* !! WOULDN'T THIS LOOK GREAT ON YOUR LAYOUT (or a gift for someone else's?) !! ITEM SPECIFICS & CUSTOM MODFICATIONS TO CARS : BOTH CARS ARE CUSTOM HAND WEATHERED & THE ENGINE IS METICULOUSLY WRECKED!

(I tested on my level track & it runs fine) Not sure how it would run on elevated track RAILCAR HEIGHT MEASURES ABOUT 3" TALL (so be sure you have overhead clearance!!!!) BEAUTIFULLY WEATHERED & DETAILED * SO REALISTIC!!! AFTER HAND WRECKING AND/OR WEATHERING , TRAIN/CAR IS FINISHED WITH A CLEAR DULLCOTE SPRAY. MOST OF THE CARS ARE IN USED CONDITION, PRIOR TO WRECKING AND WEATHERING.

BOX CARS & FLATS MAY OR MAY NOT RUN/ROLL DEPENDING ON HOW BADLY CRASHED THEY ARE. SOME RUN GREAT, SOME NOT SO WELL, AND OTHERS NOT AT ALL. *** THIS FLAT CAR SEEMS TO RUN JUST FINE WHEN I HAND PUSH IT ON MY LEVEL TRACK PIECE. WHEELS AND COUPLERS ARE IN PLACE & IN GOOD CONDITIO N. RUNS VERY SMOOTHLY AND VERY EASILY ON THE TRACK , BUT UNSURE ABOUT SLOPED OR ELEVATED TRACK . IT'S 3" TALL, SO YOU'LL WANT OVERHEAD CLE ARANCE THROUGH TUNNELS OR BRIDGES!!! __________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ I welcome any and all questions!
