A excellent value loco, that looks great, and run well over my tracks.
Overall a nice model.
Runs cleanly and quietly out of the box.
However the only downside is this also came with a bent buffer and a broken/snapped control lever inside the cab.
It’s disappointing paying so much money only for it to have these defects.
Arrived on time and well packaged. Items ordered look great and very pleased with them. Great value for money.
Since I'm the way on holiday and have not seen the product yet it is difficult to write an accurate review, however since you have asked me now two or three times the write one this is all I can say!
Looks good. Magnetic coupling & the 8 pin socket is a lot better to couple the cars than the plastic bar that other companies use on their units. Ran well straight out of the box. Lower price by buying direct via Heljan.com persuaded me to purchase this item. Glad I did. Recommended.
Seems fine to me, don't know what all the fuss was about. Excellent price compared with the 'new' ones coming out!
Disappointed that although description and instruction manual states twin speaker this is not the case.
What an amazing price for a terrific wagon, great quality and fantastic scale representation. 👍🇬🇧🙏❤️
A lovely model that suits my era well and the sound is great as expected.
VERY PLEASED WITH MY CLASS 47. IT GOES WELL AND IS REALLY GOOD VALUE. MOST IMPRESSED.
Excellent model runs well. Only weakness is plug connecting cars and risk of destroying decoder if it should come into contact with live track.
Excellent models and really good value.
An excellent model of the Class 73 locomotive. I bought this as a static only model as I used to be a Southern Region driver and spent many enjoyable hours driving these locomotives. I intend to display it in an illuminated display case in order to pick out the excellent details on this model and it will take pride of place in my collection.
Everything about the tankers was top quality apart from the couplings. They nearly all fail to join together when shunting. (that also includes the previous molasses tankers that I bought) Problem was solved by fitting Kadee couplings into the NEM sockets.
Got this with the 30% spin and win promo so ended up being £140 which considering it has a high spec ESU loksound 5 sound project in it is impressive. Yes the shape is off, though in this livery i only notice it looking face on so again for 140, its fine. Its nicley painted, full cab interior with light, sounds pretty good and runs very smoothly. Very happy with it
A nice enough model, but I thought the shade of BR blue a bit dark. The power connecting plug and socket were fiddly to join together, and even when joined it was difficult to position the wires; the unit kept derailing when the trailer car was leading. So the placing of the wires are crucial. And why does the model need traction tyres? On a positive note, the model runs very smoothly indeed, and it's excellent how you can easily remove the body as it's held on with magnets. Overall, I'm happy with it for the price I paid. No way would I have paid the original asking price though.
A really lovely little model that runs beautifully from the box. A stay alive is definitely a need, it's a bit of a squeeze but you can get one in the cab infront of the desk without it being seen. Mine has been very heavily weathered and it really shows off the detail
I guess the only negative is the cab light may as well not be there, and more of the marker lights could be illuminated but it does at least mean I have a project to add them in!
Great model, extremely smooth runner and nice to see the BR blue is an improvement on earlier versions that were a little too dark.
Very good value for money, and the quality is first class for such a small model with very good running performance. I think a second Class 02 might be on the cards to purchase, if any are left!
