The Varney 2-8-0 HO Steam Locomotive & Tender #1392 is a vintage model train set in black color, featuring a 2-8-0 wheel configuration in 1:87 scale. Made of plastic and diecast materials, this analog-controlled locomotive is ready to go with a two-rail system. The set includes a tender and embodies a transportation theme, perfect for collectors and hobbyists. With its classic design and brand, this Varney locomotive is a great addition to any model railroad collection. This engine has a wire coming from the back, don't know where it goes. I tested by holding transformer leads to the wheels but could not get it to run. I could not get the wheels of the engine to turn over by hand.
