Hi Cary. Yes, so good for the price and quite a nice looking little engine. I'm trying to find out what loco it's modelled on so I can give it a re-paint :)
I might actually keep my eyes peeled for something like this. I've got some grand nieces and nephews that are old enough to reach the layout and grab stuff before I can stop them. If they've got their own toy train to destroy, maybe they'll leave mine alone :)
Hi Tom, How funny is that, I have just bought one of those similar sets in Trago Cornwall £4.50. Really good. Mine even has an Led on the front. I have weathered it and the trucks, and stood it in the engine shed with the nose sticking out, looks great. The trucks I put in some real coal and they are on the sidings. purely visual but as you say really well detailed. You would never know unless you picked them up. Thanks for your video, really interesting. All the best Duncan.
Hi Duncan, what a wonderful coincidence. Fantastic for the price...for kids and even model for our layouts. I've taken mine apart and primed all the sections, I noticed then that that it has an LED too. (The more expensive set doesn't have one). I'm going to give them a re-paint and see how far I can go to make them look good. I'm trying to find out which prototype it's modelled on. I have a strong feeling that it's supposed to be a 2-6-0 (Mogul). I'm going to attempt to add the extra axle to the front. I'm also going to have a mess around with the insides. I really like your idea of using them as static models, that's great. All the best mate...Tom
Hi Dave, I hope you're well :) I was thinking of disguising some straights in tunnels, bridges, level crossing etc. I'll test it on the Hornby plastic track, too. I was thinking this could be a good little set for a Halloween and/or Christmas layout/diorama. All the best mate :)
The gauge is slightly off so it tends to wobble a bit on the tracks so, just for fun, I'm making a layout for this one with the plastic track. All the best...Tom
Nice sets at quite a fair price.
Great for the kids indeed
👍👍👍😎😎😎

Hi Gerry, that's a good idea...diversion tactics...lol. Give them some cereal boxes and let them build a small layout :)
Keep the kids happy outside , would be great for an easy build garden railway ........Peter
Definitely a good one for the kids. Nice and sturdy and they stay on the track. Thanks for watching mate :)

Tom Jenssen Hi Tom,
Brilliant, let me know how you get on. Would like to see some pics when done 👍👍🚂🚂🚂🚂
Duncan,
@@duncan1945 I'll be making a video of the mini project.
Cool and awesome
Hi Nathan, thanks :) I'll be doing some work on these ;)
Nice!
Cheers Fabrizio :)
@@tomjenssen7486 Thanks for sharing, cheers
I really like these "Little" train sets... wonder if it will work on HO gauge track?
Thanks for watching. Yes, they can run on ho but with a slight wobble.
fabulous Tom !..great for the patio!..could you adapt some straights for it?...amazing value cheers,dave

@@tomjenssen7486 perfect for either of those....(and my grandson lol)
Where could I find one of these bad boys?
I thought you was going to run it on your layout.

Cool train but quite noisy...
