Accucraft AC83-148A Brass Long Caboose Peaked Roof D&RGW Flying Rio Grande 1:20.3. Condition is Like New, technically used. It is #0584.
I bought it used with little-to-no runtime. I ran it a couple times around my garden railroad, and it looked fantastic doing it. I am only selling because I model pre-1938 D&RGW narrow gauge, so the Flying Rio Grande scheme doesn’t fit in. It is also heavy (being brass), so my battery powered trains have to work harder compared to the rest of my... rolling stock being plastic. Some of the window acrylic pieces had fallen out when I purchased it, but I never got around to re-installing them. I have a few of the pieces, but did not receive all that fell out. I am including the pieces I have (Picture #8) to cut more out of new acrylic sheet. I never got around to it, have too many other train projects. Also, the fireman’s side lantern is a little loose, but not broken.
Other than that, this caboose is flawless. I am sad to see it go, but I’d rather sell this near-perfect piece to someone who will use it with the current Flying Rio Grande scheme, instead of me potentially ruining it with a repaint and new decals.
It will be packed as shown in the photos, inside the worn but good original box. That box will then be packed inside another box for safety.
USA shipping only to lower 48 states. I will ship UPS with insurance unless arrangements are made after winning and before paying. No local pickup.
No returns.
Feel free to ask any questions! Have a great day!
