Looks great, lots of detail and runs on my layout like a charm.

Great (for the green DC one )
This engine is very good . From running to looks (I've got the green DC one ) its amazing . It runs so incredibly smoothly and for DC that is amazing . It does smell of the engine when you've been running it from 4 or 5 o'clock . It also looks amazing . Some of the pipes going down the side are moulded but all the hand rails are seperately fitted . Another problem is that its VERY VERY VERY delicate . So if it sounds like you'll like it you probably will .
