VINTAGE, NOS, PUFF-PUFF BATTERY OPERATED LOCO TRAIN IN ORIGINAL BOX & TESTED :
$39.00

HEREI AM OFFERING A VERY, VERY RARE VINTAGE, FULLY TIN, NOS (NEW OLD STOCK) BATTERY OPERATED \"PUFF-PUFF LOCO\". WHICH IS A TIN TRAIN WITH MYSTERY ACTION (AKA BUMP N\'GO) THAT ALSO HAS A SMOKING EFFECT FROM IT\'S MAIN ENGINE/STACK, A TRAIN STYLE WHISTLE AND A RED FRONT FLASHING LIGHT. NOS = NEW OLD STOCK.THESE HAVE BEEN SENT TO ME FROM A FRIEND OF MINE WHO RECENTLY LOCATED A MASTER SHIPPING CARTON OF THESE WHICH CONTAINS 10 OF THESE TRAINS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN OPENED.UNLIKE MOST OF THESE THAT YOU DO FIND HERE ON , THESE ARE TRUE NOS AT IT\'S FINEST!I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THESE TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. THIS TRAIN MEASURES OUT AT A GOOD SIZE OF JUST UNDER 16 INCHES (40CM) LONG AND SLIGHTLY OVER 3 INCHES WIDE (8CM). I WILL TEST EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE PRIOR TO SENDING IT OFF TO YOU SO WE BOTH KNOW THAT YOU WILL HAVE NO ISSUES WITH IT THUS GUARANTEEING THAT IT WILL NOT ARRIVE AS D.O.A.THIS TRAIN USES THREE (3) SIZE \"D\" BATTERIES AND ARE VERY SIMPLE TO INSTALL VIA THE REAR BATTERY COMPARTMENT (NOT INCLUDED).HERE\'S HOW IT WORKS....AS WITH ALL BATTERY OPERATED MODELS, THE FIRST THING YOU HAVE TO DO IS TO INSTALL THE BATTERIES! AS I JUST MENTIONED THIS TRAIN TAKES THREE (3) \"D\" SIZE BATTERIES.ONCE YOU LOCATE THE BATTERY BOX ON THE REAR OF THE TRAIN AND INSTALL THE BATTERIES, YOU THEN LOCK THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT DOWN AND PLACE THE TRAIN ON ANY HARD SURFACE. PLEASE NOTE THAT NONE OF THESE VINTAGE MODELS WERE DESIGNED TO OPERATE ON CARPET, SO DO NOT EXPECT GOOD RESULTS IF YOU PLACE THIS ON A CARPET! NEXT YOU SIMPLY SWITCH THE TRAIN TO \"ON\" AND AWAY IT GOES!INSTANTLY, IT WILL TAKE OFF, THE FRONT LIGHT WILL START FLASHING, YOU WILL HEAR THE TRAIN STYLE WHISTLE AND NOTICE THAT THE FRONT MAIN SMOKE STACK STARTS PUFFING OUT SMOKE.THIS TRAIN HAS THE MYSTERY ACTION SO ONCE IT STRIKES AN OBSTACLE, IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY REDIRECT ITSELF.THAT\'S IT!! SIMPLE AND FUN TO WATCH! THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT DISPLAY OR KEEP YOUNG MINDS OCCUPIED FOR A WHILE! NOT TOO YOUNG MIND YOU!! DUE TO IT\'S SIZE AND WEIGHT, THE MANUFACTURE STATES THIS IS NOT A TOY, BUT A COLLECTIBLE ITEM. HERE I DO DIFFER SOMEWHAT AS I BELIEVE THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT TOY SPARKING YOUNG MINDS! ALL OF THE GRAPHICS ON THIS TRAIN ARE TIN LITHOGRAPHY AND ARE NOT STICKERS. YOU HAVE NO CHANCE OF THESE FALLING OFF! BEING TRUE NOS, YOU HAVE NO ISSUES WITH THE CHASSIS, BATTERY COMPARTMENT OR IT\'S OVERALL APPEARANCE. HOWEVER, BEING AN ITEM MADE BACK IN THE 1980\'S FROM CHINA, YOU MIGHT FIND SOME MANUFACTURING TRACES ON THESE TRAINS AS THE QUALITY CONTROL BACK THEN IS NOT WHAT IT IS TODAY. THE ORIGINAL BOX IS IN VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT SHAPE/CONDITION. AGAIN, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS WAS MADE AROUND 30 YEARS AGO AND HAS SPENT IT\'S ENTIRE LIFE IN IT\'S MASTER SHIPPING BOX. THIS OFFERED TONS OF PROTECTION, BUT ALSO HAS BEEN MOVED AROUND A FEW TIMES OR SO. SO YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME SLIGHT FRICTION WEAR HERE AND THERE. NONE OF THE BOXES HAVE ANY TEARS AND ALL ARE 100% ORIGINAL WITH NO ADDED TAPE OR GLUE.PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY PICTURES AS THESE DO BECOME AN IMPORTANT SECTION OF THIS LISTING. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WILL BE RECEIVING FROM ME. ITAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE WORLD. I DO HAVEOPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE. I TEST EVERYTHING PRIOR TO LISTING THEM AND ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO SENDING THEM OFF. I DO THIS SO WE WILL BOTH BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT, IT\'S THE ONLY WAY I DO THINGS! YOU WILL NEVER SEE ME WRITE \"THIS MODEL IS UNTESTED AND WILL BE SOLD AS IS\" OR ... I LOVE THIS ONE, \"I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS MODEL AS I HAVE NO BATTERIES OF THIS SIZE\"!! ...... COME ON NOW... AFTER ALL, HOW HARD IS IT TO TOSS IN A FEW BATTERIES OR TO WIND UP A MODEL?? PRETTY DAMN EASY IF YOU ASK ME. AS I STATED ABOVE, THESE TRAINS WILL ALL BE TESTED PRIOR TO MY WRAPPING THEM UP AND MAILING IT AWAY.ONCE AGAIN, PLEASETAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THESE PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA MESSAGING AND I WILL DO THE REST!
