It's pretty much accepted that there is little QC on just about everything (not just model trains) these days - it's often cheaper to simply replace the few defective ones that slip through rather than the cost of a massive QC 100% operation. And, of course, such physical damage (as pictured) could ...

Lubrication and where to oil is mentioned in the fourth item down on the first page of that PDF. However, brand new Farish locos don't usually need pre-oiling (unlike many Dapol ones) before running-in although sometimes it helps to remove some of the transit/packing grease.

Is there anyway to check what items one has registered for? I'm sure I expressed interest for a NSE class 321 but can't remember how many and would like to confirm what I entered.

Interesting.

I was under the impression that Peco had effectively given up on producing RTR locomotives in N gauge. But it would be good to see them still making the effort.
