She's a lovely little engine, this. Just bought mine, and I'm having a lot of fun with her. The LMS combo brake is a tricky thing, and the throttle lag takes some getting used to, but both enhance the experience and are very realistic. The sounds are great too, especially when you give a two note whipporwhill on the whistle when you start. By the by, lads, it can be sounded continously with the "B" key, says so in the manual and does work.
She does indeed look fantastic & sounds great to boot. The whistle is kind of rubbish though. We want something that will sound continuously as long as we hold the whistle button down, not a little chirp. I am curious about the mentioned "Functional Lubrication System". Is that to say that if we, say, don't turn the lubricators on that bad things will happen? Also, the wheelslip animation: What if we throw her into reverse at high speed? Will the direction change be shown?

Dat skidding....
If I could have only one payware loco, it would be this one, it's wonderful. But "Dymanic" smoke effects?!?
Does automatic fireman do the lubricators? :)
