ROCO 0-6-0 Outside frame chassis (Some months later.)

[Hobby]

That's a bargain! Wonder why they have suddenly become so cheap...

In this case it is split from the starter set.

I've got 4 of the chassis running on my layout and so far I've had to replace 1 motor and on another motor I had to tweek the brushes in the motor so that they touched the commutator. Those 2 have done about 18 shows with approx 3 - 4 hours running per show. No sign of any wobbling on the newer ones.

That set is still showing up as "Pre-order"....

Does anyone know the loco number to be used? As it's a bargain...

I have also as yet had no problems.

It is not the first time Roco have done this with H0e sets. About 10 years ago they did a run of the DCC starter set with the outside frame tank loco (in DR black) and two larger bogie wagons along with their basic DCC controller and track for about the price of the normal locos on their own.
Again back then lots of sets were split and sold as separate parts.
