Packaging and Important Information
The locomotive is supplied in an older-style Hornby box, which shows shelf wear.
IMPORTANT: THE INTERNAL PROTECTIVE COVER IS MISSING FROM THE BOX.
The locomotive has detailing fitted at No. 1 end and a coupling at No. 2 end only. A further coupling would be required for operation with couplings at both ends.
As the locomotive has been renumbered, weathered and re-liveried, its finish differs from a standard factory-produced example.
