Chinese QJ pictures

I picked up one of those QJ models from China recently. It is the 6800 Iron Bull version.

The model is really detailed, I was a little surprised. It seemed to run pretty well on the layout. It has white LEDs for the forward and reverse lights. The electric pickups are in the tender and a connector sends the power to the locomotive.

Most of the hatches and such open and the cab interior is detailed.

You can see some photos I took at:

If anyone is interested in these or has any questions let me know. I am thinking of importing some more as there is a significant discount in bulk purchases. Now all we need is some Chinese passenger cars to recreate Jingping pass in the backyard.

That looks like a really well made locomotive. I impressed with the detail. How come the Chinese get something that looks like real coal in the tender and not just molded plastic blobs? Does it run as well as it look? Thanks for sharing.

It's real coal - after all, they have enty-zillion tons of the stuff...
