DUFORD MODEL WORKS SPECIAL!

These sets are very limited quantity of 150 total worldwide!

FULLY LOADED Set by Duford Model Works exclusively for Lombard Hobbies:

• MPI MP36PH Chicago Metra - 'State of Illinois' #402 with custom DCC/ESU LokSound V5
• Nippon Sharyo Bi-Level Coach #6074 with lighting kit installed
• Nippon Sharyo Bi-Level Coach #6169 with lighting kit installed
• Nippon Sharyo Bi-Level Cab-Coach #8541 with light kit installed and FL12 Cab car decoder

These locomotive + car sets are part of the Kato USA Kobo Custom Paint line, hand-painted and decorated by a master modeler in Japan. Due to the hand-made nature of this item, some minor blemishes and differences may be present from model to model – Kato USA or Lombard Hobbies cannot take returns on items unless they possess major paint or mechanical issues.

**Lombard Hobbies Recommendation - As modelers ourselves we highly recommend ONLY running DCC on DCC systems and DC on DC systems, regardless of 'Dual-Mode' capability. This gives optimum performance and safeguards the unit from possible damage from running on a different system than originally intended and from any inexperienced operator errors.
