Isn't it nice when manufacturers do things properly. In a general market where most things are cheap rubbish, it warms the heart.

"Masterpiece" is the right word. It's superb. Perplexed by Dapol's note in the loco manual that it doesn't need running in; mine has now been run for many hours and it's much quieter and smoother than straight out of the box. Personally, I was delighted to get etched number plates in the box, they are a very distinctive part of any GW loco and the 3D relief isn't replicated by the printed versions, although they are very neat.

These really do look terrific. GWR modellers will be very pleased

you were right about the hand rail you had concerns about. one of mine came off. but it was easily fixed with a tiny bit of super glue.

Perhaps the lack of cab seating makes it easier to fit a crew. Enjoyed the review with the nuggets of history dropped in, which makes it much more interesting.

Very nice just shows what can be done for not an astronomical cost for the buyer, the coupling system between the tender and loco is superior to anything the other manufacturers are releasing. As Dapol are on the GWR track they could do with producing the 2900 Saint class, it’s an obvious missing link in the GWR designs. Second to this would be the 3031 Dean Achilles single wheeler.

So having said I was probably going to pass on one I’m now tempted! I see the sound fitted ones are all pre-order. Is there an issue with availability on sound fitted or is it just a case of them not yet being released?

@JenniferEKirk Жыл бұрын

The sound fitted ones are all fitted after arrival in the UK, so always lag behind whilst they are being done.

Great review. Almost tempted to get one of these even though I am a diesel man with a penchant for the 1980’s. I suppose it could be a preserved loco running some Mk1 stock in chocolate & cream…..

Enjoyed your review Jenny, but you should really include the mechanism, for serviceability, quality etc, which goes without saying very important when assessing the quality of a model. By the way I am no fan of carpet man!
