Thank you Sam. A timely review. My mother Daphne Pamela , passed away on 1st May, aged 90. Her love of red roses, and such a little lady in stature but as tough as the Pecket. A model I shall save up for, even though I model in N . This is a great video . Super super super. Love the channel. Keep reviewing Peckets . 🙏
Pecket Mfg Co : "Lining?" Daphne : " *yes* " Cute and beautiful thing, it's a display piece on its own. Very sad to know that the real one exists and is in bad shape :(
Dear Sam a suggestion when doing a loco review and you put the loco down on the track to do a test run, well we cannot see what you are doing when you turn the knob, e.g. the loco stops but was it the loco or was it you turning the power off. My suggestion is to have showing on the screen a volts and an amps meter as you do this test so we can see how much each loco draws David
As I often say about Hornby this is too expensive, but if I were to buy a Hornby Peckett this would be the one. A very lovely engine, and a good yearly tradition!
If I was still modelling in 00, I'd definitely get me one of these gorgeous babies. I would, though, also try to organize a semi-permanently-coupled 'shunter's truck' situation with extra pickups, like the Sentinel. Since it's an industrial loco, that would be justifiable. The livery colour looks very much like Midland red, and I've always thought that MR livery looks great on any loco. Almost as good as the Armstrong/Dean GWR livery... Thanks for showing us this lovely little loco.
I can never get enough of the W4 Pecketts. I love pugs in general, and the Pecketts are such high quality little shunters. I really want one, once I either find the money or find a good deal on a used one. edit: on the subject of reviewing more Pecketts, if you ever wanted to do a really uneconomical video, you could always get all the different liveries you don't have, and review the various liveries. Maybe do it as some sort of a raffle, where people can buy tickets to enter, and then after you review all the various liveries, you raffle off some of them to recoup costs? I know I'd be willing to chuck a little money at a chance of getting a Peckett, and I bet you could get enough raffle entries to break even.
if I was still into oo and not in the process of selling my collection this would of been my peckett of choice just down to the Livery. I'm going to go with the sentinel being the odd engine out. Great video as always Sam!
I got Niclausse for cheap from Amazon a couple of months ago, and is gorgeous. Took me long enough, because I wanted Dodo from the first batch but they all sold out too quickly. I'd love a Daphne, but I don't think I can justify such a small thing for such a high price. I do still have 2 spare 4-pin chips requiring locos though... My Niclausse runs very well, although it was run in on a club layout that hadn't had a track clean in ages, so it needed a wheel clean before it would reliably run slowly. It does cut out a bit on a peco large crossover (insulfrog), but can haul the 9-wagon rake of KR Models' Consett Iron Ore wagons with resin loads plus a brake van with ease (who needs a 9F?)
Hi All. Love the Colour of that little Loco. Having had an 'Aunt Daphne', I maybe forced to buy one. Why..!? Amusingly "Aunt Daphne' was Terrified of Flying Birds. ( Yep, Absolutely Wet Knickers and Screaming.) Once, when allowing my Budgie to Fly free. Daphne walked in..! When the Budgie flew over Daphne, she turned about the Same Colour and Screamed like a Trains whistle..! So I must have one of these to Remember Daphne..! Cheers All. Kim in Oz. 😎 Ps. Up to that Point None of my Family knew about Aunt D's. Issue with Birds. My Budgie was always in his Cage and Covered for future Visits..! Sorry Aunt Daphne we Didn't know..! Truely..!! 😈 Great review Sam ( as Always ) Thanx. 😎
Going to get one for my grandfather as a surprise for his OO gauge! I can only find the blue "Bear" peckett but it will do! these little things look awesome! Was hard to find such a good review and you smashed it! got me convinced!
I had mine on pre order from when it was announced at the height of the pandemic so got it at the old price, bought it to upgrade my Santa's Express .......... it's a beautiful little thing, they all are! you just can't have enough of them!
@@andrewdking I didn't even see it lol ........... I had to go scrolling to find it! ........... your mate in Canada thinks like me! ............ I just thought this one because it's so finely detailed would just look so much nicer than the stock loco. I bought the centenary when they released it, I was so impressed I just couldn't resist this one, I'm with Sam on the builders plate in the centenary box though, even if it was a smaller etched plate, it would've been a nicer touch! ...........
@@kramskee I've found myself buying stuff because it's attractive or interesting, not because I need it. As someone else has just pointed out, not enough Peckett B2s
@@andrewdking well that's life isn't it? and what can we say? we're all still children at heart! what's the point of life without some playtime! got to enjoy yourself a little now and then! ...... I could never afford this stuff as a kid, now that I'm older I can barely just but that doesn't stop me! every now and then I spoil myself! Can't resist a Peckett they're just too damn nice not too, it's one of the nicest things that Hornby make!
@@kramskee yep, I'm a big kid at heart and now being a certain age, can buy mostly what I want in the model railway hobby. Shame my house isn't large enough to have the room to create a layout of my dreams, so I am a member of my local model railway club who has a decent layout
Well I am glad the livery is NOT the same as on the box! You would assume that with "modern" colour printing we have today, that the colour matching would be spot on!
Someone really could break into the market with cheaper, railroad/lima standard locos. I'm old, my eyesight doesn't require high detail product I can't see anymore and I'm tired of being ripped off by the Big Two. I frankly wouldn't care if I was buying breach of copyright/lawsuit knockoffs (think Fender or Gibson guitar replicas) at this point. Ridiculous and totally off-putting to young folk who haven't the expendable income that the target demographics for Hornby and Bachmann have. What happens when the grey legions pass away?
I agree with you completely. As I have said to Sam in the past, I just buy Lima models these days which are really cheap but still have an excellent level of detail. Sod the gouging grubs.
Two years ago, you rated the Peckett 0-6-0 version at 9.54 stars, Your second highest rating for any loco, over the past two years. Of course, that was before the price went way up.
Hi Sam, Tytherington Quarry is undergoing something of a renaissance at the moment providing stone for HS2. Some great double headed Class 66’s and Class 60 Cappagh trains running through Yate where I live where the Tytherington branch line joins the main line.
Yeessss I've been waiting to see some locomotives pulling/pushing rolling stock *backwards* during the running session! I don't know why but I love seeing engines run in that direction more than the normal forward-facing pulling direction.
I've just received my Daphne a few days ago from Collett's Models of Exmouth. The owner did it for me including postage for £106.75 so that improves the value for money rating greatly. I to ordered it early last year based upon its colour. Actually it's colour is described as Tytherington Stone Co purple ! That's as much purple as the ochre colour Terriers were described as Improved Engine Green. I ordered mine originally for a mate in Canada because they are big into Christmas model village displays over there and his had a loop of track around it. The red colour is perfect for Christmas I thought, but no, he preferred the blue 6-wheel B2. So I ordered both locos cus I liked the red myself. I also own a pale green W4, and am now eyeing up the blue and red open back cab one named Bear. How can one resist these cute locos ? As for the brass coloured plastic, Hornby needs to do themselves a favour by stopping using that coarse metal flake gold paint and use a fine metallic. Alclad II does superb metallic paints for anyone wanting to improve the look of these components.
Wonderful review and such a nice little industrial engine! 👍 Even British industrial locomotives looked as smart and colorful as those on the mainlines! @5:30 @11:56
I’d like to buy one of these one day and then rename her as Poppy, British Legion or something along those lines as my own remembrance engine! The Livery looks superb, definitely one to get one day!
Hi Sam, nice review of the lovely little locos that these are. Going to say you very own “Gladstone” 0-4-2 was the odd one out. **Edit** I just rewatched the B2 Peckett review and that had a metal whistle. You commented on that video that this was an improvement over your “other” Pecketts, so has this new 0-4-0 version had a (tiny) upgrade?
Despite all the fancy new liveries, I still prefer that leaf green one you have, and seeing it with southern coaches really pushed me to try and get one!
I only own two: the grey Centenery and a blue one I painted black as Daisy in her retirement from the LMR. I have been looking at this one so I was pleased to see you cover it. £102 is the best price I have seen new and in stock. £115 seems to be the average. It's a lovely loco but I am retired again for the moment so I have to be more careful. I've bought a Coronation Class and Class 68 this week so I have to back off :( Fortunately I forgot about some auction items earlier, so I wasn't tempted.
is the 'odd one out' the sentinel at 23:40? the peckett looks like a great little engine and i can see why you have a hard time with trying to only buy one a year now. great video!
I think your pulling power algorithm is slightly off lol. Had flashbacks to that experiment with the o gauge wagons and autocoach. All that aside, that thing is gorgeous. With a livery like that it could be an LMS engine.
This livery on this particular engine looks like Lady from Thomas and the Magic Railroad. Only differences I’m seeing is this has a saddle tank not side tanks and Lady had a coal bunker not a closed cab with no bunker. Lady also had more golden/brass looking parts but she was made for the movie.
Great review sam I've been itching to buy a peckit for a while now if this turns up in my local model shop I will buy regardless of price, it is beautiful 👍
I am a figure modeller, figures can cost a fortune. They are what that are, if you want one, then you pay the price. Like the lottery, you want to play you have to pay. Grumbling is allowed however!
What a lovely, cute little engine. Absolutely impressed with its pulling power. Was thinking of getting one of these but having seen your review on the B2 Sherwood, I'm going to have to get one of them first. Sorry pecket . . . will get to you later.
Great looking model, Sam! But if I want to own one, I want a maroon/wood colored 0-6-0 peckett with gold stripes because I love anything red and 0-6-0s.
Love these Pecketts and a good review Sam. It should have METROPOLITAN or MET on the tank as the decoration and colour would be good enough for me. Yeah I know it would be non original but who cares about purism. If I remember rightly there was an LT 0-4-0 Peckett at Bulmers decades ago.
Yeah I agree with you Sam they are great loco's, However I would give a lower quality score as my own experience hasnt been as good. Daphne was the second Peckett in a row for me to have one of the pickups not touching the wheels at all from new making them pretty unreliable. I know its an easy fix but I shouldn't have to fix 2 brand new loco's straight out of the box otherwise there are excellent. Though on the pickup subject I've noticed a few loco's that are brand new arriving with me where 1 or more pickups are not touching the wheels not just from Hornby either, might be worth for yourself to keep an eye out for it. Thanks for review Sam looking forward to the next one.
I say that this livery on a peckett is very nice and it suits the locomotive very well... I guess hornby is going for the comeback...looks like the battle of locomotive brands happening already....starting from the type of locomotive, liveries, price and details... Cheers mate and have a good one!
At that price, the valves should have been metal and turned, and the buffers sprung. Hornby cheapskating again where they really shouldn't. Agreed it looks lovely and runs very nicely.
Not possible. Components can only be turned on a lathe if it has a common axis, hence the whistle on the cab roof. The dome is an assembly of parts moulded as a single piece, hence its painted plastic. It would look much better if Hornby used a finer metallic paint. The buffers if you look (similar to their Terrier) are aligned to the chassis, so no room for a typical spring mechanism. Its not cheap skating, just common engineering sense.
It's a really lovely little engine Sam, but which has fallen foul of Hornby's exorbitant pricing policy. It works really well, however, even with just a 3 pole motor and no flywheel. I know you're a big fan of the Peckett, maybe another review for 2023?! Best, Pete.
@@pettra1 you will find my comments all over Sam's reviews. If there is one manufacturer who really does overcharge its Heljan. I think you will find Hornby and Bachmann are in the same ballpark price wise. Sam moans at both of them
Every time I go to get a new loco I normally consider a Peckett but I always get something else personally I prefer the light green one with red siderods but that’s just my opinion. Great review Sam 😁 (also I saw this loco at the St. Helens transport museum in 2014 I think)
Very nice Sam Pecketts are cute because of their small size and fun fact I’ve actually driven a Peckett or at least an engine very similar to a Peckett in real life and see the steam train I’ll be driving in August it will probably be a saddle tank engine and a longer run and hopefully pulling some coaches so hopefully this train driving experience will be even better than the last one because of the bigger loco and more carriages and longer run, take care cheers :)
Can you do a program on how you got your trains on the shelf to stop and keep from falling? Thank you. Could not find your old coverage from 2 or 3 years ago.
These are not made in HO scale are they? I've seen plenty of HO scale 0-4-0s from other manufactures but, at least here in the US, they tend to lean heavily towards the all black visuals, this one looks absolutely fantastic with the bright colors (regardless of whether or not that is realistic)
Pointless story time: I am an industrial loco fan and when this model was announced it was revolutionary - a RTR industrial 0-4-0ST?! Amazing! Well anyway I couldn't decide which one to go for and pre-ordered all 3 opting to base it on physical appearance when they arrived... Anyway I bought all 3... So what about the Hawthorn Leslie?... I'd rather not talk about it any more....
It's sad to see the state the real Daphne is in. Such a small locomotive, surely money can be found to restore it. Perhaps Hornby could use some of its rip off pricing money to fund a full restoration.
i like the peckett it is nicely done and it is to bad that hornby `s build qality on the other models lacks the nice build quality that the peckett has. thanks for a great review on a nicely made peckett. ✨✨✨✨✨👍👍👍👍👍🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

I love the Pecketts and my Dad got me a W4 for my birthday! He recently passed and whenever I look at the little loco I think of him.
Could you imagine an 040… without all wheel pickup?
That sounds horrifying!
Tell that to the old B&O C-16 “Little Joe” models by AHM, TYCO, Rivarossi etc. with just two pickups!
@@daylightman8459 yikes
As I often say about Hornby this is too expensive, but if I were to buy a Hornby Peckett this would be the one. A very lovely engine, and a good yearly tradition!
Yeah that's fair - and at least this one is decent! :D

Thanks Sam, I value your reviews and have purchased way too many model trains based on your positive reviews! Keep up the good work, much appreciated
haha that's lovely to hear Robert, thanks very much!
@@SamsTrains And yes, I just bought one!
I still think my pick of the Pecketts is the Huntley and Palmers livery, I just wish there was one without the company lettering.
Excellent review, as always. Always lovely to see a Peckett! Odd one out being the Sam's Trains 0-4-0 due to the tender?
I'll keep an eye out for one. I think it'll fit in as a shunter on my railway since it's in a red, gold and black livery.
The best looking Daphne I saw was the one in Ricky Gervais' show 'Afterlife'. Now she had truly clean lines and excellent details!
Hi Sam, these Peckett machines are like sweets 🍬 it’s difficult not to have another one 😁
if I was still into oo and not in the process of selling my collection this would of been my peckett of choice just down to the Livery. I'm going to go with the sentinel being the odd engine out. Great video as always Sam!
Great video Good to see the Peckett consistency! Would look great pulling the SECR 4 wheel carriages!

It does cut out a bit on a peco large crossover (insulfrog), but can haul the 9-wagon rake of KR Models' Consett Iron Ore wagons with resin loads plus a brake van with ease (who needs a 9F?)

Without knowing what the Chinese are charging Hornby for these models, it's difficult to determine if the suggested RRP is fair.

Ahh good choice - they are genuinely lovely aren't they? :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I'm surprised you didn't notice the off side interior rear window wasn't installed correctly see at 11.36 minutes
A lovely-looking Peckett and pack a punch. I wonder how good one would look like in LNER livery. I think the odd one out was Carn. Martin. (Thailand)
I hope they still have this one, I really want a red locomotive, but all the red ones are prohibitively expensive for some reason.
Hello, welcome peckettaholics anonymous!

haha yeah that's true actually - maybe even more powerful than I've made out!! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I quite fancy getting Bear as a model.
Great review as always and was the locomotive standing out the one on the turntable.
I’ve always liked peketts, this one’s beautiful
Hornby really love 0-4-0s don’t they. I sometimes wonder what they would do with a Kitson 0F, I’m kinda surprised they haven’t done one yet.
haha they sure do - and that would be amazing to see! :D

Great review sam I've been itching to buy a peckit for a while now if this turns up in my local model shop I will buy regardless of price, it is beautiful 👍
Jeepers, Pecketts seem to always make it into the top ten more often than not...sounds like we've got another mystery on our hands
I do love these and like you seem to be building a collection. Same motor as the Terrier?
I am a figure modeller, figures can cost a fortune. They are what that are, if you want one, then you pay the price. Like the lottery, you want to play you have to pay. Grumbling is allowed however!
it was really funny watching Sam whisper about how good her crawl is and then just *SMACK!!!*
What a lovely, cute little engine. Absolutely impressed with its pulling power. Was thinking of getting one of these but having seen your review on the B2 Sherwood, I'm going to have to get one of them first. Sorry pecket . . . will get to you later.
The little red tank engine in the background at 24:12 is the odd one out,
The only none peckett in the video
Hey Sam great review as always. I have this model it's fantastic little model
hi. great video. ive just paid £101 for a daphne direct from hornby. thanks again fot the video/info
Great looking model, Sam! But if I want to own one, I want a maroon/wood colored 0-6-0 peckett with gold stripes because I love anything red and 0-6-0s.

Would the odd one out be the Y1 in the siding? (23:40) Funny little shape it has, even for a diesel...
If the theme is 0-4-0 tank engines then the odd one out must be the "mysterious LBSC 0-4-0 tender engine" you reviewed a couple of years ago
The loco with the tender on the turntable is the odd one out
Great video wish My pecket had arrive😭😀👍
Thanks Sam, great job as usual, how about reviewing an Azuma. Hattons have the 5 car Scottish one at a good price.
Sam, did I spy "caen" and "Gladstone" in the sidings.... great review... even the missus thought this one was awesome... cheers Neil
Hey Sam, love it. Did I see "Gladstone" on the turn table, could that be the odd one out? Take care and stay safe.
You can use this little engine for that shunting challenge you had before.
Yeah I agree with you Sam they are great loco's, However I would give a lower quality score as my own experience hasnt been as good.
Daphne was the second Peckett in a row for me to have one of the pickups not touching the wheels at all from new making them pretty unreliable.
I know its an easy fix but I shouldn't have to fix 2 brand new loco's straight out of the box otherwise there are excellent.
Though on the pickup subject I've noticed a few loco's that are brand new arriving with me where 1 or more pickups are not touching the wheels not just from Hornby either, might be worth for yourself to keep an eye out for it.
Thanks for review Sam looking forward to the next one.
I say that this livery on a peckett is very nice and it suits the locomotive very well... I guess hornby is going for the comeback...looks like the battle of locomotive brands happening already....starting from the type of locomotive, liveries, price and details... Cheers mate and have a good one!
I think so too - definitely my favourite!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
At that price, the valves should have been metal and turned, and the buffers sprung. Hornby cheapskating again where they really shouldn't. Agreed it looks lovely and runs very nicely.
Not possible. Components can only be turned on a lathe if it has a common axis, hence the whistle on the cab roof. The dome is an assembly of parts moulded as a single piece, hence its painted plastic. It would look much better if Hornby used a finer metallic paint.
The buffers if you look (similar to their Terrier) are aligned to the chassis, so no room for a typical spring mechanism. Its not cheap skating, just common engineering sense.
That's me told!
I do think the valves require more effort nevertheless.
It's a really lovely little engine Sam, but which has fallen foul of Hornby's exorbitant pricing policy. It works really well, however, even with just a 3 pole motor and no flywheel. I know you're a big fan of the Peckett, maybe another review for 2023?! Best, Pete.
Their prices aren't exorbitant, all prices are going up across the board. Do you not notice the news ?
@@andrewdking Yes, I do. And even Sam has criticised Hornby over their pricing policy. Do you not view his reviews?
@@pettra1 you will find my comments all over Sam's reviews. If there is one manufacturer who really does overcharge its Heljan. I think you will find Hornby and Bachmann are in the same ballpark price wise. Sam moans at both of them
Look at 23:10, I think I’ve spotted are 0-4-0 imposter
He’s trying to hide from us
Make OO9 layout to go with your OO scale layout. Narrow Gauge and Standard Gauge.
22:34
The odd one out in the siding it is an 0-4-0
Every time I go to get a new loco I normally consider a Peckett but I always get something else personally I prefer the light green one with red siderods but that’s just my opinion. Great review Sam 😁 (also I saw this loco at the St. Helens transport museum in 2014 I think)
haha yeah - there is so much to choose from! That's a lovely livery too - nice choice :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
That would be Niclausse, the first one I bought cus it was the prettiest green one at their initial introduction by Hornby
Very nice Sam Pecketts are cute because of their small size and fun fact I’ve actually driven a Peckett or at least an engine very similar to a Peckett in real life and see the steam train I’ll be driving in August it will probably be a saddle tank engine and a longer run and hopefully pulling some coaches so hopefully this train driving experience will be even better than the last one because of the bigger loco and more carriages and longer run, take care cheers :)
Another W4 In Your Collection! Certainly An Amazing Model Sam. And Which Peckett W4 Is Your Favorite in Your Collection?
Hiya Sam :- May be @ 3:45 - it has something to do with the printing of the colours on the box perhaps??? 🤔🚂🚂🚂
Hi Sam, Nice review, sweet little engine, with a lot of power, nice one,, All the best Brian 😃
Thanks a lot Brian, glad you enjoyed it! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Got to pick a Peckett or two !
haha!! xD
Would the odd one out be your 3d printed loco on the turntable? As it's a tender engine not a tank engine
Can you do a program on how you got your trains on the shelf to stop and keep from falling? Thank you. Could not find your old coverage from 2 or 3 years ago.
Hi Sam, Please review Dapol O gauge Stroudley 4 wheel coaches when available. Cheers. A Collyer
I think you should do at least one 4 wheel and one 6 wheel Peckett
For some reason when I got Daphne the left step ladder was broken and so I’m going to return it but I got it from Amazon and there’s non left to get
These are not made in HO scale are they? I've seen plenty of HO scale 0-4-0s from other manufactures but, at least here in the US, they tend to lean heavily towards the all black visuals, this one looks absolutely fantastic with the bright colors (regardless of whether or not that is realistic)
Pointless story time:
I am an industrial loco fan and when this model was announced it was revolutionary - a RTR industrial 0-4-0ST?! Amazing!
Well anyway I couldn't decide which one to go for and pre-ordered all 3 opting to base it on physical appearance when they arrived...
Anyway I bought all 3... So what about the Hawthorn Leslie?... I'd rather not talk about it any more....
the hornby pecktt's are really cool iv always wanted one, also sam when will the next live stream/contest be?
Awesome video today Sam beautiful modle really wanna get one
Sam, why do I not have a Peckett? I have an Andrew Barclay, why no Peckett? Well, because every time I go shopping for one, they're sold out! lol
I agree this is a wonderful engine - what amazingly intricate lining. It just needs etched nameplates. With inflation, the price is okay.
It's sad to see the state the real Daphne is in. Such a small locomotive, surely money can be found to restore it. Perhaps Hornby could use some of its rip off pricing money to fund a full restoration.
i like the peckett it is nicely done and it is
to bad that hornby `s build qality on the other models lacks the nice build quality that the peckett has.
thanks for a great review on a nicely made peckett.
✨✨✨✨✨👍👍👍👍👍🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
