This loco was sent in a couple months ago from a viewer who said it belonged to their father. Apparently it hasn't run in over 50 years meaning it was likely last run sometime around 1969! I really wanted to see this unit run again so I decided to crack it open and see what was wrong with it. After a fair bit of cleaning and lubrication, it started again.
