Item specifics
Condition: Used  

You  are  bidding  on  one  (1)  off,  lightly  run,   LGB  #4165  Circus  Caboose  with  additional  electronic  wizardary.   The  caboose  was  made  in  Western  Germany  (circa- 1990)  and  presents  in  a  lightly  run  condition  (evidence of  wheel  tread  marking  on  the  quality  metal  wheelset).  If  you  look  closely  at  the  sides  of  the  caboose  there  are  a  series  of  alternating  green/red  leds.  When  power  is  applied  to  the  track,  the  lights  appear  to  'chase'  each  other  around  the  car (on  both  sides  of  the  car).    A switch  underneath  has  two  positions  which  sets  the  lights  at  either  fast  or  slower.  The  spotlamp  is  still  to  be  fitted  and  is  included  in  a  sealed  plastic  packaging.

The  conversion  is  obviously  professionally  done,  but  I  have  no   idea  of  the  manufacturer  name.   This  was  obviously  a  very  expensive  car  when  released.  I  have  never  seen  another  or  even  heard  of  this  conversion,  prior  to  receiving  this  car.  A  rechargable 9 volt battery  is  installed  but  I  believe  the  battery  must  charge  up  when  in  use.  The  only  instructions  inside  the  car  state  that  a  ni-cad  rechargable  battery  only  should  be  fitted.  This  is  truly  a  unique  car  and  is  a  delight  to  see  when  running  on  a  train.  It  has  a  real  carnival  atmosphere  to  it. 

 

 

The  successful  bidder  will be  required  to  pay  registered  mail  by  Australia  Post.    Payment,  by  PayPal  required  within  five  days.   Note  that  the  postage  calculator  is  correct  for  Australian  residents.  I will advise  successful  bidder  by  invoice.    PLEASE  NOTE:   Ignore  the  'Pay  Now'  auto prompt  from  eBay  as  the  shipping  figure  may  be  incorrect  as  insurance  may  need  to  be  added.  Do  not  pay  until  you  receive  an  invoice  from  me.   I  always  combine  shipping  where  possible.  If  I  overcharge  on  international  shipping  then  the  difference  will  be  refunded.
