Looks lovely. I too remember Stepney from the Railway Series - especially the story of the cricket match and Caroline the car. As for the sand pipes they probably wouldn't have stayed red for very long in service. So maybe some subtle weathering would do the trick. Great review! Thanks.
Hi Jenny, A most enjoyable and well detailed review. A lovely model and the running looks perfect - even at slow speed crossing the points. Wish Hornby took care of all its products in the same way. Thanks for sharing & greetings, Filip
To confirm, Brighton is currently in Southern green as W11 NEWPORT (though it doesn't carry the name at present). It is the only operational terrier at the Isle of Wight Steam Railway as sister terrier W8 FRESHWATER is undergoing a boiler overhaul
Hello Jenny, great review. Is there a lot of difference between Honrby's first and later batches of Terriers, besides the recessed tank tops? If if you can't get enough of that nice improved engine green, may I suggest Merton? What a stunner, and comes in beautiful presentation box too.
i think this model is perfect for the price, not so exspensive that it puts of to many people , it has some faults but i think sometimes the price point the loco is at has its limits. There are alternatives if people want to take detail further, but for the majority of the modeling word this looks perfect

Like your review. Would the Gaugemaster 6 pin, not be better?
Well I just got Leadenhall, I wonder if its the same production?
Ooh, mines in the post as we speak. I hope the review verdict is ok. (Continues to watch the rest of the video with trepidation)
Breathes sigh of relief (I ordered the DCC fitted one). Thanks for another great video
