Big Blue Beauty! Heljan O Gauge Class 26/1 in weathered BR Blue - Unboxing and review

Today Jenny is taking a look at the new Class 26/1 in weathered BR blue, from Heljan. It's big, it's heavy, it runs like a dream and she's rather pleased with it. If you like the look of this locomotive and fancy one for yourself, here's a link to help you out: bit.ly/3WgbBf5

What a superb model...worth every penny in my opinion. 👍

incredibly in-depth review.

Amazing train 🙂

looks great for 0 guage model, love the weathering factory done, bit price for me but never say never but atm I'm sticking with my HO gauge till I get my layout completed, if I ever do.

[@hugotyson308]

How do you fit the snowploughs. I can't as the ones in the accessory pack are different to what is shown in the instruction manual.

Shame about that decoder option... But a nice model all the same, Expensive but I AM tempted for a small, very small O gauge layout... The Couplings look brilliant, I think they look ace and you can do it on OO however you do need nice smooth curves especially when traversing points with an S bend... As you say, buffer lock! Well done Jen!!!😎

Don’t scrimp on the decoder, the Loksound or Lokpilot XL decoders are head and shoulders above the Zen or other cheaper models.

Hard to tell from the real thing in use. Nice model, nice scale.

I wish you hasn't done this one. I'm starting to buckle under the strain.
