Great looking loco and great sound
A great model, it looks good and sounds good.
Absolutely brilliant - this is the first Heljan loco I have bought new. I think it's important to credit the the design and livery choices to pre-Accurascale Heljan - the final sign-off and packaging was post acquirement I believe, so the new era looks to be a cracker built on what was already top-draw stuff.
Excellent model and sounds great!
Excellent, runs smooth sounds great
Runs well. Sounds good. Excellent attractive livery.
I was very pleased when Heljan announced this version of the class 42 having visited Germany and having seen one or their V200’s in the flesh.
This particular model is presented within a presentation box that differs from the other class 42’s which in my opinion makes this model a collectible.
To my surprise, the model is quite heavy and built to a high standard, the detail and livery application are extremely good indeed.
My particular model is a DCC sound fitted version, equipped with an ESU Loksound5 decoder and an impressive bass reflex speaker, the sound project incorporated into this model is extremely good with 32 DCC functions available, some of these are configurable too.
I am also impressed with the lighting arrangements which include white marker lights, a single red tail light, two cab lights in each end of the locomotive, and engine room lighting.
An extensive accessory bag is also included.
One minor niggle, out of the box this model ran at slow speed with a slightly jerky motion, however I was able to correct this by placing the model on a piece of track, then reprogramming CV54 to zero.
I am extremely pleased with this purchase and I believe Heljan have produced a very fine example of the class 42 Warship.
Absolutely stunning loco. The livery is unique and outstanding
Excellent running and decorated model with great sounding sound profile. Loving the DB livery too.
Lovely smooth runner with great sound quality; feels weighty in the hand. Fits right into my layout where I run both German and British outline on the same layout, just swapping over the stock . I can leave this one on all the time!!! Surprised it didn't have a stay alive but so far doesn't appear to need one.
What a fantastic looking model of the Class 42 in it's unique livery. The running and the sound are incredible.
