First look at Dapols OO Hawthorn Leslie saddle tank. It makes a good impression for me, bizarrely I really like the Perspex cradle it’s attached to and how that fits into the surrounding foam. Looks a good way of protecting the locomotive in transit.
Performance is excellent, it weighs 141grams and easily moved 390grams as can be seen in the video. The chassis is a split design, there’s good clearance behind the piston rod so anyone wanting to em/P4 it may be in with a good chance of not having to do too much engineering. I think it will be a popular model, if you get one it’d be interesting to hear your opinions of it too.
