This feels distinctly British Rail Class 04-ish... That's probably because these were UK-built by Drewry, who built both their own shunters for industrial use and export, as well as the basically indistinguishable BR Class 04s. Confusing. 

Anyway, I love the technic frame and the lift-off bodywork, and the positioning of the PF components is certainly novel. However, I'm concerned about it's stability - with much of the weight of the battery box behind the rear axle, this shunter might be doing rear-wheelies a lot of the time...

Have you tried out the driveline to check for binding in curves? Or does the centre axle move in some way?

No it doesn't move, I don't mind, I barelly use R40 curves :)
