The locomotive has been used before but still in good conditions and runs well with working smoke I did some modifications to the model to make it look better I replace the older front number of 4449 on engine since it was missing 4449 on it and I replace it with newer paragon4 number boreds on the loco to make it look more prototypical and better and I also painted the front four trucks into black since they were silver before and I didn’t like how it look so I painted it into black and looks a lot better and more prototypical to the real 4449 this locomotive looks amazing and would look great in your collection of 4449.
