Ballast weight for the bottom of your trash can?

“The locomotive has rusted and it does not run. It does need to be cleaned and repaired.”

Ya think?

Paint gone. Okay, glass bead and repaint, right?
EVERY steel piece is so rusted and pitted...what do you do?
Motor block looks like rust and corrosion inside. Even the bell (?) on top of the smokebox is rusted?
$40 + $19 to ship?
And no tender?
Come on, folks.

Test:

Which one of the pictures is NOT the engine being sold?

(hint....Wootten Firebox)

Interesting observation.

lycantrophe - misspelled; lycanthrope..........

Only sells trains under a full moon? No, wait......lycanthropy is not tied to the full moon.
