Beautiful derailing as far as it goes, but there are a couple of improvements needed: “CATERPILLAR” needs to be cast on the engine block, better detailing is needed on the starting engine (such as throttle linkage and plug wires), and since the starting engine has an electric starter, the tractor engine needs a generator and wiring. For an ordinary die-cast at an ordinary price that would be no problem, but at the price point of these brass models, these detail omissions are more glaring.
