BLACK 0-4-0 "SMOKEY JOE"
(R782)
Rating 4/10,
Fun model
This is a very simple model. It has some nice
detailing touches including a fireman and driver which you can put in the
cab. This model has Hornby's HP motor which I believe is the same one out of
the euro star train. This gives this model a very high top speed. In fact
too high a speed. The model has poor slow speed control starting rather
suddenly. For its size it handles points well and does not stall (although
the model I tested was new). All in all this is a fun cheep model and should
be treated as such. Great model for the kids.
