The arrival of the Mundhenke E63 was bittersweet. These engines come in a 0.5” thick wooden box. Trouble seems to be though that if you do not use the arresting bolt to secure the locomotive to the box then you may as well just put it in an envelope and hope for the best. Luckily, I’ve been able to straighten out the bends for the most part. Fixing the enamel loss will be a bit harder. Also, finding E5.5 19V bulbs is no easy thing either. All in all, it could have been much worse. It runs well and the directional lighting is intact. DHL / USPS can be brutal. Also shown as ‘new’ is the Marklin 1841 passenger coach.
