This classic features die-cast metal construction, a worm drive motor, an operating smoke unit, an operating headlight, a 3 position forward-neutral-reverse E-unit, metal side rods and metal wheels. The 671 was a mainstay of Lionel‘s line in the late 1940s. This one comes with Lionel's premium tender, the 2671W which features 6-wheel trucks and of course an operating whistle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA powerful and innovative model, the 6-8-6 was a Steam locomotive introduced during the 20th century. The 6-8-6 was powerful at high speeds, and was initially seen as a possible challenger to the Diesel locomotives that were beginning to dominate rail-yards in North America. While the design was loved by many, the 6-8-6 would ultimately present too many problems in both maintenance and performance before actually being scrapped for good by 1960. No known 6-8-6 models exist today as the focus greatly shifted to diesel models by the 1960s. This won't stop you from running this legendary model, and with this breathtaking replica, you'll feel like you're in the cab of your very own real-life 6-8-6!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has been graded per TCA standards C-7: Excellent based on visual appearance. There is some visible paint loss on the locomotive. The locomotive runs smooth, shines bright, and billows smoke as it should! This unit had no problem switching directions. The whistle tender works but is a little rough sounding; It may benefit from being taken apart and cleaned. The original boxes are not included. Please check the photos for a detailed look at this item. Overall condition is Excellent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent (\u003ca href=\"#\" title=\"C-7: All original: minute scratches and paint nicks; no rust or missing parts; no distortion of parts.
