OO GAUGE -- EX HORNBY 4-6-2 CITY OF LEICESTER [SOLD]

OO GAUGE -- EX HORNBY MODEL
BR GREEN LIVERY 4-6-2 "CITY OF LEICESTER"

SOME SLIGHT WEAR TO THE NAME PLATE "CITY OF LEICESTER" BUT NO OTHER DAMAGE TO REPORT.

NOW I USED TO OWN A FEW OLD HORNBY LOCO'S WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND I NEVER SAW ONE WHICH HAD ADDED WEIGHT TO THE TENDER SO I BELIEVE THIS IS SOMETHING DAD TINKERED WITH SO LONG AGO. 

TENDERS USED TO HAVE THE MOTOR IN THERE AS I RECALL. THIS IS BACKED UP BY A COUPLE OF OTHER LOCO'S OF A SIMILAR STYLE THAT DO INDEED HAVE THE MOTOR'S IN THE TENDER.
