Super little shunted so detailed with very good lighting too
Nice model, but the body is extremely difficult to get off. Was an absolute pain to chip. The orange detail parts are made from a very soft plastic, easily broken. Ran like a bag of nuts at first, but appears to have settled down after running in. A couple of the pickups were mis-shapen messes, but were fixable. Hopefully any future batches will have much improved construction.
Cheers guys it’s brilliant… but would you make a couple of express dairy milk tanker or a different company… or a flat wagon … O gauge of course … I am new to O gauge 👍
Kind regards Ted Barnes 👍
This locomotive is gorgeous in LL livery! No regrets whatsoever. Initially I wanted a BR Blue one, but they sold out in a day.
This has more than made up for it.!
Detail is great and love the roof mounted horns. Look forward to running this as I haven't removed it from the base yet let alone install a DCC sound decoder - happy times ahead!
A great little loco - worked well straight out of the box (surprising how rare that is). Definitely one of Heljan's best.
Great railcar for my future china clay layout all at a good price.
Great looking locomotive, well detailed at a great price.
Great looking class 47 and now is my second of the class in my fleet.
Pleased to see that this loco did arrive in one piece with no damage, unlike my dutch livery class 47, however slight small red/orange stains to one side of body, so will have to disguise with weathering. Also random tiny spring loose in box ? From tension coupling maybe.
I would definitely be wanting to expand my class 47 fleet in the near future, funds pending.
I think it would be great to see this loco remanufactured in other liveries such as Intercity, Intercity Swallow, Executive Intercity, RES and Scotrail for a friend ; )
I would certainly be interested in a couple of each.
First 37 I've bought and what a superb model it is. Solid and heavy, runs sweet as a nut and really does look good in departmental grey livery. The price makes this and all the other current Heljan locos excellent value for money. Just what we modellers need!
Fantastic model. Captures the PMV wonderfully. Loved the price too. So glad I got me one of these.
Whilst there is some really good detail, in O Gauge, I would expect to see separate door handles and locks, rather than just moulded into the plastic.
Super locomotive. Highly detailed and the application of the livery is really good. Ran superbly well straight from the box. Heavy and powerful. Can’t fault it in any way. To top it all, what a wonderful price.
Great locomotive. Recommend it highly.
Brilliant model, runs like a dream and great quality and details
These are superb wagons, at great value. The service was excellent and items arrived within 48 hours. The one downside to the wagons is that straight from the box they run 'squeaky' o needed an oil.
