The underframe is amazing, although somewhat needless, however for that price I think a much more of a matt finish would have been expected, although no doubt you will do your usual amazing weathering look to it in time. Nice to see you back Nigel
Yeah, I do find myself wondering how much of the high price of these wagons is paying for the underside detail that you'll never see while the thing is running.
Good evening Mr Train man 😊 Hope you enjoyed your holiday ☀️ Always a pleasure watching your review videos on new products essential explaining the pros and cons like the sprung buffers lol 😂
Nice and concise review. I wonder if we can look forward to a review of the new Hornby TTA tanker as well if that is on your radar, and more to the point the final instalment in your Hornby TTA upgrade series, if you decided to continue on with the weathering and finishing touches.
Apart from the wrong bit of buffer with the spring, a very nice looking wagon, perfect for the seventies-eighties. Bit pricy still and looks a tad delicate. PS wouldn’t mind seeing a bit more running on your blue diesel East Anglian Railway??? Nice review Nigel, safe travels 👋🏻
Cheers, nice review, got myself four as a result. I'm wondering whether it might be possible to botch a fix for the buffer error with some styrene tube of the appropriate diameter?
Sprung buffers are not something I approve of in 00 scale, unless you are in the EM or P4 camp! I'll probably glue them to keep them extended, maybe....
Thats a great model Nigel i was looking at them in Smiths of Sheringham the other day.
My layout in 68/69 so they are just out of my timescale

Yes had a super holiday, I've got a few more vids to post from it, when I get a moment off work that is 😭😂👍

Yes to both 👍 (hopefully 😬)

I'd like to see more running on my layout!! Hopefully get it working ready for spring/summer 24 😉
good review. what was the steel wagon that had the same underframe?
SAA. most of which got converted to something else.
I'm hoping they do that variant as RTR

What's the significance of the "ABN" circle?
"Air braked network" which was the name before Speedlink come along
