So, probably one of those sellers who separates engines and tenders, right?
This one is identified oddly, at least to me:
Country/Region of Manufacture: Korea, Republic of
Maybe. But then:
Brass Body Wood Base Nicely Done
Okay, I'll bite. When did Korean Brass have wood floors on tenders, and rusty axles, and thick fibre drawbars drilled off-center? And nut/bolt holding trucks on, soldered no less. Gotta make it worth more $!
But wait!
$134.95
Was: Previous Price$149.95 10% off
or Best Offer
+$9.95 shipping
Gotta move the merchandise. Quick!
Doesn't look all that "nice" to me. Enlighten me.

They must be driving to Buford, GA and using the same carp camera system that Trainz is using. Or they bought a duplicate.

Old (they got that part correct), home made, way over-priced, arch bar trucks?

A lot of the Japanese brass traction came with wood floors (or none), and wood roof.
This however looks like a salvage bash job.......
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. It also gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms, trust issues, and a dark sense of humor.

Re: Puzzled
I looked through their on-line "store", and those folks are nutz.
After 5 pages, the only RR related items I found were LGB "G" track locks and some loose plastic handrails for $45. NOBODY uses those locks. We throw them away. Somebody wants some, we just hand them to them.
But the Disneyland Locksmith Retirement Key for $450 was amazing.
Whole lot of nothing.....or buy it new elsewhere cheaper.
Door handle sets, a penny for $9.00, that kind of stuff.
