5 inch gauge AME "Vulcan 4" battery electric shunter - stock code 13091

A "Vulcan 4", the largest of the AME range of battery electrics, finished in a classic BR Rail Blue livery.

Bogies are each fitted with a pair of 24 volt motors, with Mtroniks DCi 120-24 controller and remote hand set. The locomotive is fitted with LED headlight and two tone horns.

The horns work when connected to a separate 12V supply, but obstinately refuse to sound when connected to the locomotives on-board batteries - the connecting wiring will require some investigation.

There is further information and a comprehensive specification for the Vulcan 4 on AME's excellent website here.

Supplied with hand controller and a pair of new 12V batteries.
