This is a 1974 run PFM Tenshodo model imported from Japan. The box has minimal shelf wear. It comes with a replacement ReBoxx foam insert worth $45 and spare parts. The model has been mechanically serviced, with old gearbox grease removed and replaced, and two new drive tubes installed. The sound cam on the front engine and tender is factory - drilled for a speaker, though it needs to be removed for modern sound system installation. It's a great example of a vintage model and a Tenshodo 50th anniversary piece. Note that the previous owner installed non - functional PFM sound, and there are two small dents on each side of the tender near the front bottom. Brand: Brass PFM - Tenshodo, Part Number: 167.
