    Description

    I bought this Mamod Live Steam Set in 1986 at a hobby shop in Bourton-on-the-Water, England and brought it back to the US. The original price sticker of 124.95 pounds is on the box. It is a complete Mamod RS-1 set with the green 0-4-0 O gauge locomotive, two cars (passenger coach and freight wagon), a complete circle (plus 2 straight) of steel track, the fire tray, whistle/reversing tool, brochure and instruction sheet. The only thing missing is the fuel package which was seized by airport security.  The loco has been steamed up about a dozen times, but not in the last 20 years.  It has a steam whistle and reverser. Always worked well when I used it. Everything is in good original condition except the box has some age wear. Sterno is what is used in Fondue pots and is usually available in hardware stores.
    Before you fire up the loco I would suggest lubricating all parts, checking the steam release valve and working the reverser. Don't touch when operating, it gets hot.  Cars are in great condition as is the track.
    I have six bundles of additional track, right and left hand turn outs and two other wagons running this week in separate auctions that I also bought. This set is quite heavy and will require stout packaging.  Shipping will be determined by destination after the auction ends. Package will be heavy and expensive to ship.
