    I have to say, I was nervous about jumping into O Gauge, but after seeing your videos and purchasing a few models, I'm extremely impressed.

    Gorgeous detailed loco and if I was to have a garden set up then this would be on my list. She runs smoothly and it handles speed well on the controller down to a crawl. Defiantly a nice purchase by you Sam and it looks great with a load of wagons behind it. For me it is back to playing catch up on the rest of your videos.

    Absolutely beautiful. This review confirmed how awesome they are, so I'm definitely going to buy one after my birthday in just over a month.
    I got a dapol 14t tanker today, is awesome, and I'm currently sat making a Parkside ex-SNCF 16t mineral wagon kit.
    Also my kernow/djm photographic grey 1361 arrived today, and it looks fantastic. Was very jerky at low speed on my R965 controller, so I googled it and it seems to be a feedback controller, unusual for a 20 year old trainset controller, so I swapped it for my H&M duette, and the saddle tank runs superbly with the controller set to full wave high resistance.

    Great review! I ordered one of these with a little trepidation after seeing this as I didn’t know how the model would fare on the long journey from England to Australia with that method of packaging. Thankfully it arrived today fully intact. It’s a great model and I do love the proper owners manual that comes with it. I’ve only seen that once before with a Bachman G Scale Climax I bought years ago. The issue of detail parts falling off seems to be a common one these days with the level of separately applied parts. I’ve had a few Australian HO scale models with bits rattling around in the bottom of the box. Easy enough to fix and only a slight annoyance as long as nothing is actually broken.

    Hey Sam, that is an outstanding review of the Dapol O Gauge Great Western 14xx Auto Tank, despite some of the details had been broken off and you have to fix them back on, but it's still a magnificent machine.
    The running performance was ace.
    Now you have an O Gauge Great Western 14xx, you'll have to get an Auto Coach to go with it, as your 14xx is in British Railways Brunswick Green Livery with the Late Crest, I would suggest getting the Auto Coach in British Railways Crimson Livery to match it, like how the 14xx & Auto Coach looked back in the 1950's.
    Once again, an outstanding review on the Dapol O Gauge Great Western 14xx, keep up the good work mate.

    I picked one of these up a few weeks ago (4800 in as-built livery with "GREAT WESTERN" fully spelled out on the tanks), so when I saw you finally had one I was thinking yeah, you're in for a treat, mate! My heart sank when I saw that leaf spring lying on the floor while you were unboxing her. Mine didn't have any issues with damaged parts, so I was disappointed to see that the packaging failed to protect yours. I agree though, that heavy plastic shell seemed like overkill. Mine didn't have any noticeable paintwork issues either, but it's unlined so I suppose there's less to go wrong there. Still, after those little faults, I was relieved to see that yours is as smooth and quiet and impressive a runner as mine is. I absolutely love this thing.
    I also have the Dapol O pannier, which has animated valve gear. That's a really cool feature, but it's very difficult to see the motion when the model is underway. The valve gear is more exposed on the 14xx, which would have made animated valve motion more impressive on this model, but the eccentrics for the valve gear would have to share an axle with the drive gear, and there probably isn't enough room for both. The pannier has the eccentrics on the second axle and the drive gear on the third, but of course the 14xx only has the two driven axles. What the 14xx valve gear lacks in movement, it makes up for by being more realistic in appearance though.
    One cool feature you missed is that the cab roof is removable, held on by magnets. That makes it much easier to admire the cab interior details, as well as to close the cab doors once they have been opened.

    Fun fact: Those pickups are identical to the ones used on the old AirFix 14xx. I have one, they don't run too well, and mine needs a new chassis plate, but they are beautiful little things. Truly the crowning jewel in my collection.

    Hi Sam. Great video. I bought one of the class 14xx, as well. I bought some polyester ribbon and put a length of it around the plastic packaging that holds the loco. I left about 5 inches of extra ribbon on each side so I have enough to get a good grip and use that to lift the plastic packaging out of the box so I don't have to use my fingers to try and grasp it. It eliminates the chances of my fingers doing any damage to the loco.

    The autocoach service between Gloucester and Chalford was a top link job at Gloucester Horton Road depot on a par with working the Cheltenham Spa Express to Paddington. So quite important really and not just banished to branch lines.

      @@SamsTrains My pleasure :) The other story that always goes with the autotanks at Gloucester is the races they used to have with midland region expresses. There is a length of line where the old GWR Gloucester to Swindon (and Chalford) runs parallel to the old midland line between Gloucester and Bristol. The legend is that if the autotrain got to the piece of track the same time as a midlands express they would give the tank everything and at least hold their own or win against the midland black fives, patriots etc.
      Gloucester used to have an ex-GWR and an ex-Midland shed so there was quite a lot of "friendly" rivalry!!

    you should make yourself a shunters hook or somthing to make coupling up to rolling stock easier

  • @bryancaughey7507
    @bryancaughey7507 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Sam, put some dcc sound into it. My grandpa had 2 atlas O scale locos and running on a loop around the garage with a few box cars. Adding sound will just take your railroad to a whole new dimension. You don’t need a big sorting yard with lots of cars. Branchline work is awsome with sound, especially if you can do it in a larger gauge. My favourite loco is my broadway Mikado in Great Northern (American) livery. I just run it with a few cars and a caboose, but ringing its bell and blowing its whistle as it come around is pretty awesome, all the fun I need! (Until I get a 4-4-0 Dcc/sound :) ).
