We sold this one back in July of this year - no sooner had the new owner taken delivery than we had the freelance 7 1/4 inch gauge vertical boiler creation come in to which he took a shine, so this one's come back in part exchange. Condition is unchanged since last time it was here, photographs opposite are from that time.

A 7 1/4 inch gauge "Planet II" 0-4-0 battery electric shunter, commercially produced by Maxitrak.

This one's come to us from a local chap alongside his "Bridget". Powered by four Graupner 12 volt 6373 motors - two per axle directly via delrin gears - it's had light use from new and remains in good condition throughout.

The dashboard in the cab has been isolated and rerouted through to a third-party hand controller to facilitate comfortable operation from a driving truck.

Complete with a new 110Ah battery, construction manual and wiring diagram - a full technical specification is available on Maxitrak's website here.
