This is one of the best Margate (UK) built models that Hornby ever made. It extremely highly detailed for the time and runs beautifuly and I think it holds it's own compared to many of todays best models. It's tender powered by a ringfield motor so no wheel slip I'm afraid but, if well maintained, runs very smoothly and quietly. This model also has pickups on the front bogie too so all the wheels have pickups. This gives it excellent reliability and makes very smooth over points for example. The detail is superb for a model of this era. Both the moulding and the paint work is very high quality. The tiny name plates on the side are readable and the cab is partially painted, there is fine rivet detail around the buffers and the whistles and reverse rod are separately fitted metal items. If it has glazed windows and sprung buffers it would honestly contend with the latest and greatest from Hornby today.Read full review
