    This has certainly convinced me of the superiority of DCC.
    I also like the idea of an Era 1 layout in the dawn of railways!

    Locomotion and rocket look great together on track. Great video and glad it’s working well by the end. 👍

    I also bought one, still have to pick it up with relatives of mine.
    Is that an idea of me, or is it just the light it's filmed in, but the wood grain doesn't seem to be as convincing as Lion or Tiger.
    But it's still a magnificent loco.
    Nice video review👍

    The instructions and website stated it does tank the hm7000. Instructions show the hm7000, you can see the buetooth antenna. I asked them. They have since changed that.

      This is taken from hornbys product info on the model ......
      "This model comes fitted with a Next 18 pin socket but due to the locomotives size limitations sadly it cannot take a HM7000 Next 18 pin decoder."

    The mechanism for that is fascinating. I wonder if there is some higher than normal resistance that the higher voltage of DCC is getting through better? or if its just stronger & cleaner drive power for the motor.

    Mine was terrible and even after running in for two hours still surges. I might try a decoder before I return it.

      Try cleaning the wheels. Mine had extremely dirty wheels, right out of the box. I cleaned them and the problem went away.

    Does the instruction sheet with that Dapol decoder still refer to "860015 Next 18 6 Function decoders (NEM 662)" ? 860015 is a Lais Next 18 decoder which is around £10 cheaper.

    I ask because you didn't mention it or demonstrate.

    Look at the size of that bunker, how have Hornby not been able to get a HM7000 decoder in there?
    What's even the point of putting a speaker in there if their own products aren't compatible with it.
    Hornby strike again!!!!
