Eagerly anticipated, it seems like these absolute belters have been a long time coming, but will they fulfil the hype?
With their rugged & distinctive good looks that bristle with more detail than we're used to on British Outline steam locomotives, I already think that the Rapido S160 is contender for model of the year. From the thumbnail alone you can see that these OO models look the bomb, and they really mean business when it comes to hauling long, heavy goods trains around our layouts.
Watch to the end to see how many wagons this one can pull along Neville Grove.
Sound is not DCC! It’s a video edit using a blend of archive sounds and recordings of preserved S160’s taken on various heritage railways.
