I think we have to appreciate the fact that 009 is still very much a niche scale and Bachmann won't be able to sell as many of these as a standard 00 loco (for example) so that does push the price up. The upside is that they've crammed in as many features as a possible to make it worth that price and it's not that much more expensive than recent N Gauge releases. Thanks for watching 😃

@@ThatModelRailwayGuy yes I definitely agree with you on that, but in general Bachmann’s prices (and Hornby’s) as of late have been crazy high, and it’s getting to the point where I feel as if I’m not going to be able to afford the hobby in the near future. This is a great model though, that is not at all what I was trying to get at.

Wow, what a beauty from Bachmann. Remember when many of those separate detail parts would be molded into the boiler as one part? Not any more! Even the piping, while outsized, would likely be far more work than it would be worth to correct. One part would affect another, then another and so on. All in all, a great addition to the roster. Terrific review, as always.

Oh absolutely, we've come a long way even in just the last 5-10 years alone. It wasn't that long ago that Bachmann had a reputation for creating fairly simple models with high price tags - the later may still be true but the quality and finesse of the models has come on in leaps and bounds in recent years.

I have the 'Blanche' and the 'Linda'. Wonderful engines! They will tolerate very sharp curves that the other larger engines will fail to negotiate. P.S. I noted some 'cogging' on your engine as it rounded some of the curves around 10:19....I had that with my Linda out of the box especially when going in reverse around curves. I found that some careful application of silicion oil to the connecting rod big ends and piston slides freed it up very nicely.
@ThatModelRailwayGuy
Жыл бұрын
Absolutely, being 0-4-0s they do very well with the sharp curves! I don't actually think it's cogging though, it's due to my poor track laying as several locos have trouble here! 😅 There's a bit of kink in the line to accommodate the point which I suspect isn't perfectly level either. In comparison, on the opposite side of the layout the other curve is much smoother and the loco didn't have any trouble here at all. Thanks for watching 👍

@@ThatModelRailwayGuy Well, if you ask a Welsh speaker, they'll likely tell you that 'gofod' - pronounced 'govvod' means 'space' as in space to do things, and 'tynn' is not Welsh at all. Welsh words don't end in double consonants. If you are looking to use a word for 'narrow', then that is 'tenau', pronounced 'ten-eye'.

It does make you think twice when you see how small the loco is, but remember 009 is still a very niche scale. That's also the price for the Sound Fitted version too. Considering a sound decoder tends to be around £100 extra, if you take that away you're a lot closer to where N gauge models sit. Thanks for watching 😃
