Description: PLEASE READ BEFOR PURCHASING! MTH HO UP GAS TURBINE VERANDA WITH FACTORY INSTALLED PROTO-SOUND I WAS A MTH DEALER AND PURCHASED THIS ENGINE FOR DISPLAY ONLY AS N&W IS MY RR OF CHOICE. THE SOUND AND LIGHTS SEEMED TO WORK BEFORE I TOOK IT APART. THIS ENGINE WAS MINT ONLY DISPLAYED IN A GLASS ENCLOSED DISPLAY CASE, I'VE NEVER OPERATED IT UNTIL I RECENTLY TESTED IT BEFORE REPACKING TO SELL AND NOTICED IT DID NOT WORK. THE ELECTRONICS SEEMS FINE BUT MOST OF THE PLASTIC GEARS ON THE METAL AXLES HAVE CRACKED BECAUSE THE PLASTIC AND METAL EXPANDED AT DIFFERENT RATES CAUSING THE ENGINE TO HOP AND SKIP AS IT MOVES OR TRIES TO MOVE DOWN THE TRACK. (IF ANY OF YOU CAN REMEMBER THE SAME PROBLEM WAS PREVELENT ON THE OLDER PROTO LIFELIKE ENGINES YEARS AGO), THE FIX WAS TO REPLACE THE AXEL ASSEMBLY OR THE PLASTIC GEAR THAT HAD CRACKED, THE PROBLEM NOW IS SO FAR I CAN NOT FIND THE PARTS TO REPAIR THIS ENGINE. I'VE ALSO HAD SEVERAL WIRES TO BREAK LOOSE FROM THE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS AFTER TAKEING IT APART AND TRYING TO PUT IT BACK TOGETHER. IF YOU HAVE THE SKILLS TO REPAIR THIS ONE YOU'LL HAVE A NEW MTH ENGINE FOR A LOT LESS THAN YOU PAID. SALE INCLUDES THE EXTRA FUEL TANK CAR, ALL THE PACKING, PAPERWORK AND ORIGINAL BOX. FREE SHIPPING & INSURANCE FOR ALL 50 STATES. THANKS BILL SVC TRAINS.
