I just love this vehicle. Such a lovely model and reminds me of happy days travelling on the real things years ago! The desirables are a particularly nice touch.
Excellent coach, reasonable rendition of a BR MK2 first class coach. Only thing that lets it down is the huge gap between coaches when coupled up.
Delighted with the quality look and realism of Heljan coaches.
Well these are just lovely. I was in two minds about buying oil tankers as in truth (I thought...) I'd rarely run them, as my layout is a tad small.
...Aaaaand then they arrived! And they are gorgeous, and so I inevitably invent an excuse to run them anyway. Rule 1.
As always (IME) the detailing, scaling, fit and finish are superlative - they're just really nice things to behold and to run. A four wagon rake looks great behind my class 73, or 3MT tank - and now I need to build a petrochem plant of some kind...
The multi-buy discount is very worthwhile, too. Very pleased indeed all-told.
My second lot of these. A real treat. Should have bought more. Great quality. A great addition to my now expanding collection.
This represented great value. Excellent quality. I should have bought a lot more.
Another one that I should have bought more of. Great quality for the price . Excellent addition to my O gauge collection.
I wish I'd bought more. Great coach at a excellent price.
A well-detailed and impressive Cargowaggon flat that looks excellent in a freight train. At the sale price, it represents great value for money. Very pleased with it and highly recommended.
The Heljan Class 47 has gained a somewhat poor reputation following reviews from several online influencers, but my own experience has been very different. At £99.99, I think this Railfreight Red Stripe 47214 represents tremendous value and is almost impossible to beat.
It is a great-looking locomotive with plenty of detail, built-in speakers and DCC-ready operation. You can simply fit a Hornby HM7000 decoder or choose a more expensive sound decoder if preferred.
Is every detail quite as accurate as on the considerably more expensive Bachmann Class 47? Perhaps not, but at £99.99 I am really not concerned. The detailing is nowhere near as poor as some reviews suggest, and the model looks excellent on the layout.
I am extremely pleased with mine. It runs well, looks the part and offers exceptional value for money. Highly recommended.
