Hornby R30005 Terrier K & E S R 'Bodiam' No. 3 Steam Locomotive, Blue

I enjoy the older style locomotives for my hobby.they have more character than diesel freight trains currently on the market.did my research on the British model trains and the majority of their train lines are mostly turn-of-the-century to mid-forties-fifeties style locomotives.i saw this loco on Amazon and it was reasonably priced.note:this loco is smaller than your basic ho trains,but this one is a real on the track,good slow creeper also.i hooked up four passenger cars and loco had no problems pulling them,at top speed,even.a fast little "sucka".would definitely recommend.(plus hornby offers other colors and railway names,but this bodiam terrier is really sharp in blue paint scheme!)

Great for the price. Love the look of the lining and the loco in general. It runs well and is very heavy. The diecast running plate really helps it to have a great weight and pulling power. I love all the different lamp irons fitted. It tends to cog a bit while trying to crawl. This is probably because of the 3-pole motor. Came with most parts pre-fitted. Overall, amazing value for money!

Runs very well, nice and slow when needed, fast enough for you to worry about it launching off the track on curves.

Great little engine. Works great so far. Nice detail and nice color. Very happy and would recommend.

Beautiful little train. Well made. Works well
