Rivarossi HO, Rio Grande 4-6-6-4 Challenger Locomotive #3800, DCC In Box

Description: Rivarossi Rio Grande 4-6-6-4 Challenger #3800 This locomotive is in good running condition, however, has several hours of runtime, and the resulting wear and tear. The following has been done to this locomotive:9 Pin DCC Conversion (SILENT) - Unit does NOT have Sound 30 Second TCS keepalive - with the motor not running The locomotive's headlight will last ~3 minutes without power.LED Headlight Conversion Full overhaul on all drive gears. - all drive systems have been re-oiled to ensure smooth operation. Weathered To model freight-service wear-and-tear that would have occurred to the locomotives near the end of the locomotive's time with the Rio Grande Railroad. Rear Kadee coupler conversion - coupler sits slightly below standard coupler Locomotive History: The Rio Grande (D&RGW) line of challengers were originally purchased by Union Pacific during World War II during mobilization during the war effort. 6 of these locomotives, #3800 - 3805, were subsequently leased to the Rio Grande towards the end of the War Effort, and primarily used for freight traffic. At the end of WWII, these 6 were returned to Union Pacific, who later sold the six to the Clinchfield Railway, where they were numbered #670 - 675, before being scrapped at the end of their service life. This Challenger, #3800, has been weathered and modeled to imitate its likely real-life state towards the end of WWII under the Rio Grande's ownership. more images and run videos are available upon request. I will upload better quality photos once I have the opportunity. I am selling this locomotive to pay other life expenses. Comes in Original Rivarossi Box! On Oct-05-24 at 10:16:01 PDT, seller added the following information: NOTE: The product specifications list this locomotive as “DC”. The locomotive is actually “DC/DCC” but I have no idea how to change this on the item listing.
