In todays video, we take a look at the latest release from Dapol, the Hawthorn Leslie 0-4-0ST, I've been looking forward to one of these, but was the wait worth it? Facebook: / class47peter Instagram: / class47peter

Great review of this great looking model.The sprung front axle is actually a form of compensation chassis which should ensure smoother running over uneven track by maintaining better contact with the track.

Overall an excellent review here peter, first off very interesting to see dapol sort of emulating what cavalex models did with their 56 on the packaging having this sit on a plinth and then be supported by the foam inside with no ice cube round it, overall it does look to be a very good model from dapol, that though is where I am at with it, for me these small industrial style locomotives just don’t interest me that much, I don’t have any in my fleet of locomotives and don’t really go out of my way to get them, the hornby pugs and pecketts, the Andrew Barclays I don’t have any of in my collection, I have more interest in the big express passenger and freight locomotives compared to these so overall I thing it’s very unlikely that one of these will be added to my fleet, overall a very good review here peter, I can certainly understand why you like this but as I say it’s not really a loco that interests me or gets me as excited, wouldn’t be surprised if these become as popular as hornbys peckett was, these locomotives in model form tend to do that, great video overall here Peter.

8:30 The builder and number plates ARE etched. I've got this model and scratched the back of one plate. They are brass. Why would you assume they are plastic? I don't think they'll be able to do this in plastic that small and fine, with two colours. Also etching would be much cheaper than making moulding tooling for this.

The nameplates supplied with the 68s from memory were plastic. The numberplates supplied with the Large Prairies on inspection seem to be metal but they just have the number printed onto them. Hornby have supplied plastic nameplates as well before with some locos. I just assumed they were not etched, my bad.
