Hornby R30027 | Class 60 Diesel Locomotive | Cappagh 60028 | OO Gauge | Model Train Review | HD
0Here is my first model train review to come for February 2022 and also the very first model train review video for the Lunar New Year of the Water Tiger which is a powerful element and its only fitting to review a powerful diesel locomotive. Therefore I have chosen the Hornby Class 60 which this one is represented as Cappagh 60028 in OO gauge. Reference number is R30027 and I got this model at the end of last year.

10:18 Close Ups
18:51 Rotation
20:52 Performance Test
Pros:
The model has several separately fitted detail parts and the model has features like opening cab doors, a heavy weighted chassis, all wheel drive with a central can motor and a high torque geared flywheel drive that makes this model train very powerful! It can haul about 70 wagons without slipping, that's how powerful this model really is! There is day/night mode that can be selected via the switch underneath to control the headlights. There is tail lights that are of the right ambience as well. So there is a lot of features that the model has.
Cons:
Although the Pros outweigh the cons. This example does suffer from minor light bleed on the nearside and the model comes with incorrect instructions as well. The pictograms inside the leaflet show Class 31 drawings and not Class 60 like it was on the 2019 and before models. A bizarre move there and a slip of quality control so I am taking two points off the final score. There is no longer full flush air dams included with the model that denies the modeller a choice. So I am taking a point off the features.
