IC fan posted:I don’t think the customer should have to make these modifications. How could they not have seen this? I expect a locomotive to work out of the box without modifying anything, unless that’s your choice. So glad I read this, and thanks for posting. I’m not buying one.
@IC fan, you're right. But, the sad reality is that that would have meant no locomotive, and I was excited to have a Rutland diesel, which are hard to come by in O gauge.
