Description: Gorgeous Pacific Fast Mail Chesapeake & Ohio 2-8-2 made in Japan by United and imported in 1978. Crown model with superb detail including back head detail, deck plate, etc. Model is absolutely superb. Wheel plating is excellent and shows little run time / test runs. Model runs well, tender wheels squeal in reverse. I did not lubricate as it was previously, and may continue to be a display model. Box is also in excellent condition, it has almost no visible wear. Foam, original wraps, warrantee card, decals, and parts pack included. Original owners name is written (very small) on bottom corner of box. I will pay close attention to your brass purchase and will ensure your item is packed correctly and arrives safely. Lots of original foam has lost its memory or is deteriorating and will not serve its intended purpose. I replace or remove inferior foam as needed, use additional padding, and wrap with plenty of bubble wrap. I use sturdy boxes with all seams taped ensuring that you don't receive a box of "parts". I pay special attention to my brass items, as many have been cherished for decades, were handmade, and deserve to remain a part of modeling history. Thanks for looking at Cherry Picked Trains! A couple of notes: Shipping- I do combine shipping. Please request a combined shipping invoice after winning multiple auctions, and BEFORE paying by clicking the "request total from seller" button in your cart. Note that the "request total from seller" button is not currently an option while using the eBay App, and only appears while using a browser. I ship every day except Sunday and monitor postal rates to make safe shipping as economical as possible. I take packing seriously! I use bubble wrap and plenty of packing material. Service-I strive for 100% positive feedback. If for some reason you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact me through eBay messages and I will do everything I can to fix the problem. I make every effort to list as accurately as possible. I test my items and will list any noted defects. If you have questions please ask, I respond quickly.
