This really nice, and bizarre 3-rail AC HO gauge loco by Marklin is 30455 a lucky pig locomotive. There is apparently a german tradition of giving a pig-shaped marzipan called a Glückschwein, or "lucky pig" at new year. Marklin seems to have taken this onboard and made motorised versions.
The loco pig is in good condition as you can see in the pictures, We are unable to test it as we do not have a three rail AC test rig or track, so we have not tested it but can see no reason why it would not run. It is sold in untested condition, this means that it may not run, and as such it is not being sold in running condition. However a complete external visual inspection has shown no reason why this loco would not run and the overall condition is very good. The metal box is in good if slightly shelf worn condition.
Overall this is a really nice scale locomotive and would look fantastic on a layout.
Do please have a look at my other listings, I typically have various HO and OO locos on offer as well as an extensive range of imported N gauge locos and other items.
Note: I do recommend all locos are cleaned & serviced, as they have some age to them even if the quality looks at the highest level (fairly standard advice for all locos!).
