Hi, great review of another addition to your ever growing collection, I have the Rapido Lowmac wagon and the Hatton’s departmental yellow livery warwell wagon, I have the Viessmann 2620 model with the moving hi-ab jib, I got mine for a great price a couple of years ago, absolutely amazing micro engineering at its best, the British manufacturers are miles behind the European manufacturers when it comes to precision models like these, many thanks for sharing.
I agree they are. I have a couple of Hatton's flats in departmental yellow and an other company whose name I cannot remember. I've got a little kit to add to that wit some track rails.
@@modelrailwaynoob These amazing unique items aren’t cheap, I believe you get what you pay for when it comes to items like these, I would like the Viessmann 2692 Plasser and Theurer Tamping machine at some stage, it’s a excellent vehicle that has always fascinated me, there is also another similar model with a motorised pantograph on its roof amongst other elite details that make it standout when it Comes vehicles that are required in TMD departments. My original Hornby breakdown crane and track cleaner and staff coach in departmental or engineer s yellow livery from the 80’s still look amazing even though I won’t have them on my layout once it’s built, i do wonder why these amazing vehicles in their departmental yellow liveries are ignored by British manufacturers, EFE rail have their 12T P&T crane out now and Rapido have their departmental yellow livery fish van coming out next year which is a must have for any collector of these vehicles, the EFE crane is expensive for a static non functional vehicle but I will get one eventually.
@@StormmyStormmy I have seen the other model. It's a bit more expensive I think but cool. Two kits arrived form Germany today and I am going ot have a go at motorising them when built. If not I'll add lights and pull them along.
They are great Michael, love this video 😊
Thank you Mandy

What a neat little setup...very detailed. What scale would the vehicle be...1/87 ? Thank You 👍
@jamesmelchin2873 Hi James, The Lowmac is 1:76 and yes the loco is 1:87
great vid thanks lee
@@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204 Thanks Lee
I like the Lowmac, but not the Robel. I prefer to see a steam engine or 08 shunter hauling a Lowmac.
