This ABA set features QSI Protosounds with many neat features. It is considered Protosounds 1, so it cannot be controlled by the MTH DCS digital TIU set as that is for Protosounds 2 and higher.
As you know, MTH Premier items are compatible with just about any O guage, but they go especially nice with Lionel Standard O and Atlas O. It runs on any three rail track whether by Lionel, MTH, Atlas, Gargraves or Ross Custom Switches.
CONDITION: C-7+, some might call C-8. These have been run, but they look great. Tested and runs, smokes, sounds great. New battery. Cosmetically looks good but there ARE some signs from handling and use such as a few rubs and scratches from use. To be picky: one A unit has some rubs and light scratches (hard to see), a few paint nicks, some very light crazing on nose but again, hard to detect. B unit has a few rubs and minor paint nicks; other A has some rubs. Overall, they really looks nice.
The box is P-6 showing wear such as rubs, creases, soft corners, etc. With instructions.
ALL PICTURED.
