Awesome video mate, beautiful loco really, they're gorgeous prototypes and id say the model does it justice in terms of detail at least! With a decent amount of running in, I've had locos like this such as an a3 ad 2 a4s, ans they run smooth as butter, they just take ages to bed the mechanism in. Like I say, awesome video mate, your channel is so underrated, you honestly deserve so many more subs 👏
Hi Jack thanks for the comment as always! And yes it is a very smart looking loco, shame about the performance it could be a lot better but who knows mileage may differ on DCC or like you say it may take a a while to bed in properly. 😊👍 And thank you so much for these kind words, I only really started the channel for fun but am really amazed and humbled by the support I have this far and this year it has grown from strength to strength and that’s all thanks to the support from good people such as yourself and many others who tune in to watch me ramble about trains so thank you very much for enjoying what I do ❤️🙏
Proper good review Harry, thanks for taking a closer look at this one. This is one version I don't have and I have to agree, the express blue is a stunning colour choice. Keep up the amazing work man. Hylt
Hi Hylton, thank you so much that really means a lot! And I really do like the BR Epress Blue it’s looks great thundering along the layout with a good rake of coaches. Have to stay tuned for further reviews as I have another BR blue loco coming up soon! All the best mate, Harry
@@andrewmeah3082 Hi Andrew thank you for the comment and yes I completely agree I love the BR blue livery it is vastly different to the usual BR green or LNER green we usually see the Scotsman in. Thank you for watching! 😊👍
Hi Harry, I just subscribed to your site because I trust the opinion of Hylton of "Proper Chuffed" and he was correct. Nice review and running session, Jersey Bill
Hi Jersey Bill, thanks for subscribing and dropping a comment! Really thankful for Hylton shouting me out and glad you are enjoying my content. Running session was great the Scotsman is a really smooth runner at regular running speeds just a shame it’s crawl could be better. Again thanks for the comment and subbing hope you enjoy the channel 😊👍
Just over from Proper Chuffed who gave you a shout out. A very nice looking loco (although the buzz on crawl was interesting) I think your rating was about right from what I could see. I would very much like a Flying Scotsman but which one?
Hi thank you for popping over, really grateful for Hylton giving me the shout out. And yes it’s a really nice looking loco. The buzzing is more down to the controller, it’s just the basic Hornby train set controller as I am in the market for an upgrade and didn’t know whether to stick to DC or move to DCC. However I’ve made that decision and I will be moving to DCC just hoping that Santa brings me one this Christmas haha. And glad you think my rating for this was on the money. And I would say for all the ones I have seen I would either go for the super detailed diecast version. Or if you don’t mind the look of the BR one in the video I’d invest in the new steam generator version as by all accounts it’s the same body just BR green instead and of course comes with the steam generator and sound. I believe Hylton has a review of it on his channel Proper Chuffed as well as Rob from @littlewicketrailway has a review up as well. Thank you again for the comment, All the best, Harry
