Ahoy chaps. My new Farish 08 arrived today. As you can see from the pictures, the box took a bit of a dunt in transit.
One set of cab steps is loose on one side and you can see evidence of glue where all the front and rear steps are (or were) attached.
Really just wondering if this is par for the course for this Loco or if I should go for a return.
As of yet I haven't tried running it...

I'd return it! and tell who ever you got it from how you received it, by the looks of it who ever was delivering it used it as a football!!!

I have contacted the seller. For eighty quid I'm not for accepting bits hanging off...

The front steps on my 08 have broken off - it looks like they were an interference fit. The NEM pockets both went all sloppy too after I put in easi-shunts!
