amazing how well they were built. makes Athearn and Bachmann look like crap.
mine locomotive is all metal, and any screws and wires etc it needs i can buy at Lowes or HomeDepot (instead of paying $45 at the hobby store)and its running again in an hour.
you have to love the whole antique train look too!
I have a #302 4-4-2 Flyer and like mikft22 I repaired my wires using standard stuff from Radio Schack.

I have that same engine. It's like 50+ years old and runs great. I inherited it from my grandfather.
