    This sale is for a New York Central #1908 Alco 2-6-0 DCC/Sound AND a Southern #7080 2-6-0 DCC/Sound.
    They're both being sold "as is". I won't sell them separately.
    I bought both these trains new in December of 2021 (I believe one came in a track set). Over the months, they both developed problems. Neither engine is 100% complete.
    The last time I used these engines was several months ago. As I recall, I borrowed parts from the Southern #7080 to make the New York Central
    #1908
    run.
    Shortly after my attempt  to
    Frankenstein
    the two together, I lost interest in the BACHMNN Steam
    engines. T
    oo many of the tiny fragile wires too break and poor traction on grades. Note one or both the engines have "liquid electrical tape" on the tender wires to make them more durable.
    I tested the engines and the New York Central ran great without any issues. The Southern would go a few inches, stop, and start back up when pushed. You can see a short video of the engines running at the link below. I suspect the New York Central is fine, but I don't guarantee either engine will run consistently.

    Please carefully review all images, video, my seller feedback, and ask any questions prior to purchasing.
    I don't have the original boxes so the engines will be carefully wrapped in several bubble wrap.
