5 inch gauge Class 15 battery-electric - stock code 10670

A 5 inch gauge Class 15 battery electric locomotive, in all round grotty condition and requiring a pair of batteries.

Fitted with four Fasco 2809-530-083 12 volt motors with Parkside controller - on test it appeared that only two of the motors were actually doing anything. Given that the horn doesn't work and the sound card - of unrecognized make - remained resolutely mute, we suspect a thorough sort out of the wiring is required along with a long overdue cosmetic tidy up.
