700T....NOT!

Split from engine, you'd think he KNEW what it came from.

Very late floor/chassis, with slide switch mount. VERY late trucks, knuckles, late electromagnetic couplers, NO slider shoes, NO center rail pickups, repainted, re-lettered (with stick-on numbers?), not a 700E drawbar, no coal pile whistle vent holes....who knows....price not bad for somebody trying to increase PROFITS! by splitting engine and tender.
Phillips head screws. Probably Mikey's.

Catch the un-informed by calling it a 700T, even with the question mark, where you KNOW better,

I'd be more interested in the heavyweights shown behind it.
