This appears to be a Lobaugh Pacific that has seen better days. They are fairly common models and this one will require some TLC to get it looking good again. Hopefully the gearbox is still operational.

The first driver and the pilot truck look like they are so close together that they might be in contact. Look at the connection to the tender, and where is the tender? Looks like it was dropped into the dirt. Maybe they should have gone a few more steps up the ladder and done the job right.

Well, it ts currently well under market for what it is. If they bid it sky high, that is not the seller's fault. I'd give fifty bucks for it, and I already have too many!
