About the Model

These WAG9 display models are free-rolling models with metal wheels, meaning, they can be used for display, and also can be coupled with a motorised locomotive to run 'double headed' trains on your layout. These models are built in HO scale (1:87) and run on 16.5mm gauge tracks.

The models will be equipped with Kadee OR compatible magnetic couplers and will be fully compatible with our motorised version of the locomotive that will be released in the near future.

The Model also comes with two posable Pantographs. These can be lifted and clipped back down and have spring action.

The models are 3d printed in high definition and professionally painted and detailed showing accurate livery, shed name and locomotive numbers. Many separately added fine details make these models special.

IMPORTANT NOTES

NOT A TOY and meant for adult collectors (14+ Years and above) only.

Minor assembly required by the customer: To protect the fine details from damage during shipping, some separately added details will be sent unassembled and will require the customer to add them to the model. These would be very minor assembly and all you would need is a pair of tweezers and some superglue.

Expect 3D printing artefacts: These are 3D printed models and despite our best efforts it is impossible to avoid some print lines and 3D printing artefacts. The details parts are also expected to be fragile and are not expected to survive rough handling. These are NOT considered defects.


Limited Warranty: Products have a limited warranty against manufacturing defects only. A manufacturing defect is considered a defect that severely impairs the functionality of the model and one that has gone undetected in our quality check process BEFORE the model is shipped to the customer. For such defects, we will provide a free replacement of the impaired part(s) of the model subject to the customer providing sufficient evidence against the claim. For any shipping-related damage and subsequent issue handling the customer's claim will be handled on a case by case basis. Please refer to our shipping and return policy for further details.
