Thanks for commenting my friend. I can certainly say it is worth a visit when you are over here, particularly giving the fact that it is right next to the mainline. Hope you have fun when you do come. Thanks for watching Cameron

Very nice. I can only imagine how good sound would be with a decent pantograph. It is a shame Hornby didn’t use a decent pantograph but apart from that I am pretty happy with this because I love the Intercity livery. Thanks for watching Cameron 👍

@@cameronstrainsadventures Thanks Cameron, Indeed quite mediocre from Hornby to do such a crappy pantograph with that nice livery. I found it enough reason to choose the BR Blue version with the sturdy metal pantograph ! You can see and hear it on my Channel. Cheers, Jan, Australia

Don’t have a class 123 unfortunately and there are no models from any manufacturer except for a kit built that fits on to a Hornby chassis. Thanks for watching

@@cameronstrainsadventures there is look up class 123 model

Thanks Mike. Lovely park and area to do a little bit of filming. Thanks for commenting Cameron

I recommend you do go. It may not be the biggest but there is plenty to see. It doesn’t have the biggest car park so I would recommend going by train like I did. Thanks for watching and commenting

@@cameronstrainsadventures Not full day, my visit would be same day as visit to Nantwich (Battlefield / church / museum) before coming back to Crewe Heritage Centre.

It is definitely in my top 10 that’s for sure. Probably even top 5. Thanks for watching

Thanks again!!

Thank you!!

Thanks!!

Cheers!!

Apologies for the delayed response. I have seen many reviews of Heljan models that came out at the same time as this and all have very loose body’s. Thankfully mine seems to be fine (at the moment) and I haven’t had any problems (yet). Thanks for commenting

Excuse the delayed reply. £99 pounds is a brilliant deal for a dcc fitted model even if it is a slightly older model. Thanks for commenting

Thanks for commenting Nigel and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It's great to hear that your Dad bought shares to help getting the railway to Swanage back. No matter what kind of support, big or small, something is always better than nothing. When we stopped at Corfe Castle and went into the museum, they had a video playing about the restoration of the line and how they rebuilt it step by step and it just shows how much effort everyone put into bringing the railway back. It is such a lovely line, the scenery is just fantastic. Thanks again for commenting Nigel. Have a good day whenever you read this. Cameron

Thanks for the lovely comment Brian. I love the Midland Pullman and luckily enough in June I'm going to ride on it. One day I hope to ride the Blue Train but I fear that it's just gonna be one of those journeys that is going to stay on the 'I would love to do this but I'm not sure whether I would be able to afford it' bucket list haha. Thanks again for commenting and I hope you have a good day. Cameron

@@cameronstrainsadventures Many thanks for your great reply. I'm sure I could have afforded it really, but was just far too mean to consider buying a ticket .. My SA (Xhosa) born wife would agree .. I'm more stingy now

It is a lovely heritage railway. It's only about 8 miles but if they do make the stretch of line to Wareham a permanent schedule then it will make it about 11 miles. No problem about the 159. They are my personal favourite multiple unit which is why I wanted one. Plus NSE is my favourite livery so it was a no brainer. I've only ever gotten to ride them once when I was on holiday in Exmouth last August when we got the train from Exeter back to Exmouth. Thanks for the lovely comment Charles. Cameron

@@cameronstrainsadventuresThanks for your quick reply Cameron. I've been collecting models of all my best memories travelling by train, starting with a King Class back in 1959 when I was 5! I don't even have any track to run them on, how sad is that.... There is a model of the the 159 in the new South West trains livery and when I last checked it was only available from Kernow for £475. Whatever a ridiculous price. This is becoming a very expensive hobby, however memories are all we have of our lives. Again many thanks for your efforts. Charles

@@charlesiles6136 Don't even get me started on how ridiculously expensive model railways have become. It is such a shame because i fear one day it will get so expensive that nobody can afford it and the hobby will die. Thanks for commenting. Cameron

Perfect, thanks for letting me know. Sometimes I know some details are linked to something but I don’t know what those bits are. With the example of the insulators, I knew they were something to do with the pantograph system but didn’t know what they are exactly so thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for the info I always wondered what that box on the roof was for 😊

I didn’t know that there was an issue with the red band looking different on the doors. I will keep a look out for this issue when I buy more coaches. Thanks for commenting Cameron

@@cameronstrainsadventures yeah, far as I know, it only effects the latest release, 87009. I was watching a video last night and you could see the differing colour of the red on thd cab doors. Once you see it, you can't un-see it.

Thanks man. Yeah it is a shame that the pantograph was fragile. Part of it probably can be put on me but still it shouldn’t break as easily as it did. You are probably right in the price higher being down to the dcc upgrade. When mine was real I think it was about £160, maybe more. Shame that prices are so high nowadays.

@@cameronstrainsadventures Right? My god is it a big stab in the back when you buy something that high. I just bought an auxiliary tender for my Norfolk and Western J class. Little thing from the 80’s, but it costed me $30.99 plus $12 dollars shipping which is close to $50 dollars. Even sometimes I feel like I regret buying them. I don’t know why. Even if I want them. 😵‍💫😵‍💫 But once they’re here, they’re worth it. Hopefully. But what can you do, right?

I know the feeling. You wonder whether you have made the right decision but then when you get it you are so happy

When did I say princess coronation because I must of missed that in the editing. I know it is a royal not a coronation because I already have coronation which is why I wanted a royal. Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for all the information. Cameron

I had a feeling it was. Thanks for watching Cameron

I thought I got a good deal for about £95 but you really got a good deal.

£69, that's a bargain. Thanks for commenting Cameron

Thanks man. She really is a lovely loco. I also think it must be a three-pole because of the slow speed performance and the fact that Bachmann always put three-pole motors in their steam locos. They have started to put coreless motors in their new releases but that still doesn't make up for the fact that their old models had 3 pole. At least this does have metal bearings on the wheelset because I have seen models with three pole motors, not bearings and the wheel sets being placed in square slots. And considering the price, Hornby has an 0-6-0 with their J36 which, while still relatively expensive at £177, it is much better than this. So happy I got it for just under £100. I don't think I wanna try whatever they be smoking xD

@@cameronstrainsadventures You and me both man. Whatever they’re smoking must be so strong, must be something that’ll make you worse than high. Like those drunk cows in your layout. I think they need calm down on what they’re drinking/smoking. XD But I defiantly get what you mean by all that. I forgot they put coreless motors in their new releases. But you’re right. Defiantly doesn’t make up for their crappy 3-poles. Lol.

Definitely need to have a look at those cows because they still seem drunk haha

£400 is worth exactly $484.39. Yes I did just search that up because why not. The last expensive one I had was the class 411 which was £420 and that has probably gone up in price as well. Bachmann just love to charge ridiculous prices for their multiple units. I don’t understand why they put two 3 pole motors though, maybe they though two instead of one 5 pole but it would have been even better if they had put two 5 pole motors. Apart from those parts though, I do love it. Sadly I never got to see this livery in real life but it is still one of my favourites.

I didn't even know it was coming. We were on holiday in Exmouth and when we were on the train back from Plymouth, we passed this at Dawlish Warren so whilst we were waiting for our connection at Exeter St Davids to Exmouth we waited to watch it come through. I was supposed the stop but if was running rather late so I guess they decided not to. Very nice to see. Thanks for commenting, Cameron

I know the feeling. I got an old tooled 158 a few years ago and when I found out it wasn't dcc ready I was disappointed so when I heard Bachmann announce this I thought 'I know it is gonna be expensive but I must get one'. I certainly look into what you say about the re-oiling. Thanks for commenting Cameron

Your right, the decoration is superb. It's a shame that it does make the noise and that all of them are like it but like you say, it is poor for how much it costs. Honestly I'm not too bothered with the noise because I do have some older models that make noise. The camera did also make it sound louder than it actually does. Your right with Bachmann being experts at charging big money. I don't think it is worth it but it is better detail wise and it is dcc ready compared to the old tooling but I'm glad I managed to get mine for £250. The rrp for this is absolutely pathetic. I can't see how these companies are gonna attract younger people with how much they charge these days, particularly Bachmann. Thanks for commenting Cameron

I completely agree with you Jonathan. Considering some of the major manufacturers want to entice young children into the hobby, with prices as they are, I can't see that happening on a big scale. Thanks for commenting Cameron

You do realise this is 2023 and not 1993

Thanks for all the information. I don't live anywhere near the southern region which means I'm not that knowledgeable so thanks for all the information. Particularly the part about the middle coaches, didn't realise they had to be a certain way around so I will try to remember this for the next time I run it. Thanks for commenting Cameron

With the price it is now, that is a decent price you got it for. It is a very good model. Hopefullly yours will be a good model. Thanks for commenting Cameron

Wow, £80! I thought I got a good deal for mine at £160. Shame everything these days are so expensive. Thanks for commenting Cameron

Thanks for the positive feedback Brian. Thanks for letting me know about the steps. Very interesting facts. Thanks for watching Cameron

Ah very interesting, thanks for letting me know. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cameron

Ha Ha. Thanks man. Well a few months ago I thought I would try the beard because instead of looking 18 I looked more like 10 and I've decided to stick with it. Thanks again for the feedback

Thank you Charles for the kind feedback. I also think that the layout looks larger with the snow. Maybe because the whole surroundings are one colour and it all just blends in well as without the snow you can clearly see the divides between roads and fields etc. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching!

Thanks mate, yeah Dapol do some very good products. Im planning on getting some more to create a bigger consist.

Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks for letting me know, i'll be sure to remember this

No problem 👍

yeah, I think I will do the review of the HST and coaches all together in one video next year for the 5 year anniversary of the channel because I think that would make a more interesting video than doing the coaches separately. Good to hear that the kits are going well, those D couplers are absolutely useless but at the moment I don't have anything to replace them with so I'm having to stick with them. once i have finished off the final kit in the box of 4 i got, I think I'm going to venture into other kit manufacturers and also bogey wagons because i think that will be more of a challenge.

Thank you very much for the kind feedback as always Charles. Out of the 3 years I have been, this is certainly the best year by far because the variety of size and scale along with multiple different eras made this the most memorable out of all I have been to and it's true what you say about its amazing what thought, time and money can achieve.

It is really annoying that the buffet cars are the hardest to find and as you said can also be expensive. I’ve seen so many on eBay go for ridiculous prices so when I saw this it was like Christmas had come early and like you said the difference between the old Lima tooling and the newer tooling is huge, thankfully all of my mk3s are the old Lima tooling.

I think I will possibly do a review of the buffet coach eventually, I’ll probably mix that in with another video, maybe reviewing all the coaches or wait until the 5 year anniversary of the channel next year. Haha, maybe I should replace the pub maybe with a coffee shop instead, stop the cows getting so drunk. Then again if I replace the pub with a coffee shop maybe the cows will then start getting addicted to caffeine and then they’ll get hyper and start jumping everywhere and scaring all the villagers 🤣

@@cameronstrainsadventures Feedimg coffee to cows? You crazy man? I am not looking forward to seeing an army of them run around town and bouncing off the walls. Like, dude. I’d be scared to death. 🤣 Can’t wait to see the buffet coach vid when you decide to do it eventually. Lol.

🤣😂 turn the tv on to see the news “Highly caffeinated cows terrorised villagers as they ran down the streets and bounced off walls” 🤣🤣

@@cameronstrainsadventures Oh my god, I have no idea whether to be scared or not. Even if that ever gets on BBC news. Or any other news channel where I live. 🤣🤣
