Product description
Model: The locomotive comes with a genuine steam boiler and 3-axle propulsion by means of the cylinders and side rods. Wireless remote control for direction of travel and stepless speed control. Receiver built in, sender included with the locomotive. The water in the boiler is heated with butane gas for lights, available in most stores, from a gas tank that can be refilled. Built-in safety valve and manometer. Rechargeable batteries are required for the receiver in the tender and for the sender, for remote control operation. These batteries (penlight type) are not included with the locomotive. Minimum radius required for operation is 1,020 mm / 40-3/16". Length over buffers 67.0 cm / 26-3/8".
Important: The locomotive may only be operated outdoors. The locomotive may only be operated by adults. The water boiler for this locomotive must never be heated when it is empty. The track will inevitably become dirty with steam residue and oil. When filled with water this locomotive will run for 20 to 30 minutes depending on the load. Cars with claw couplers can be coupled to the locomotive. The model can be used in most European countries.
