Lacks refinement
The overall finish and detailing is not as sharp as the old Hornby models. I have an old Hornby Nigel Gresley side by side to compare and the difference is apparent. For example the lettering on the tender is 2D rather than 3D, the cab controls are not painted and the overall blue colour is matt and lacking dynamism. The decoder has limited sounds and lacks refinement. It is too loud even at the lowest volume setting. Functionality is also limited. As compared with a Bachmann equivalent, there is no brake function (only an unrealistic sound), no flickering firebox, no heavy load function. On the plus side, it operates smoothly and well, with enough pulling power for a lengthy rake of coaches. I'd say good value for money only because I obtained it at a discounted price from the RRP and admittedly, Bachmann locos are more expensive. It looks nice from a distance but its lack of refinement becomes apparent on closer inspection
