Stumbled on to your video and glad I did. After watching your review, I ordered one from TMC, very good price compared to elsewhere. I paid less to buy and get it shipped to Southern California than i could buy from a US based supplier on Amazon. As an ex-pat Scotsman, this made me really happy. Thanks for the great review and the heads up. You got a new subscriber!

l purchased one of these and very happy. I have read the reviews about the quality of the printing but I thhick the one I have is quite good. Just imagine the cost if Hornby pad printed this. Everybody would then be complaining about the cost.

I usually end up hanging onto the bike rack in these machines because some-one got my pre-booked slot. They look highly detailed for such a model and it's nice to see. Not sure of the livery myself but it is done well. The detail of the re-built ends is really something! I do hope the pick-ups are of decent quality, but they do make that difference, it seems, with all wheel pick-ups fitted. I dare say even a DC modeller could get an led or two on the ceiling there. It's what modelling's about. A very handsome score and a fantastic review. Thank you Jenny. All the best for the New Year. Cheers now.

It is a great model,if Bachmann made this they would have added interior lighting and slapped an extra £100 on the price.

Clip-on bodies - I cut up an old acrylic 'window' into strips - from a model box 'window' - serves the job nicely, but they are hard to find if you put them down! 🙂

I don’t purchase coach like or DMU loco’s as they lack character. I do like your enthusiasm for this livery, surely you have seen the whole range of the Class 66 ( sheds ) I have eight at the moment + one on order. What do you think ? Regards from Ron 🚂👍🚂

I have the Rainbow Railways version and whilst Hornby haven’t done a bad job, the Rainbow version is definitely better.

@1701_FyldeFlyer 7 ай бұрын

Happy New Year Jen & Zoe. Why do Hornby frequently use wheels that look nothing scale like or realistic? Those wheels look awful as they do on many Hornby diesel locos. Totally spoils the overall look imho.

No, they don't.

So I have had one of these for a couple of months. I managed to get it for £106 and even then I have to say I am personally disappointed with the livery quality. Close up it is really poor quality and from 2ft away I still maintain it's poor with a distinct lack of crispness to any of the printing on the sides that can be seen at beyond 2ft to my eyes. The door labels are particularly bad. I only joined the hobby after the rainbow railways versions had sold out but their implementation, though more costly was much better. I personally would have happily have paid double for a top notch application as I realise that it is so complex so shouldn't be priced equal to a more normal one. It just seems the UV printer they used didn't quite have the DPI required or was calibrated well. If was Hornby I wouldn't have accepted these as samples from the manufacturer. I really wish that I had returned it as from reading RMWeb there appears to be another manufacturer gearing up for a 4mm 153 so a fair chance to get a better livery application.
