Hi Guys and Gals back again with another pretty recent Trackmaster greatest moments engine, its O' The Indignity Gordon.
The locomotive is itself a normal Trackmaster Gordon with an embarrassed annoyed face and some banana skin tampo's placed here and there to represent being messy from working at the rubbish dump. The Gordon looks great and is presented very well i have to congratulate Trackmaster for their good work on the visual presentation. The pack includes a red truck which has a garbage load that is removable.
The Gordon runs on a C size battery but he wasn't very fast but as i say in the video possibly because he is brand new, most engines get a little faster after running allot. he seemed to labour around corners a bit and I noticed these white plastic bushings on the front wheels which don't let the front wheels move laterally as they should to give easy turning, I'm not sure if other new TM Gordons have this but it seems to dull the performance allot. So not so great in the running department but it gets around ok.
So overall a decent package that looks fantastic let down by average running performance, for an engine thats "Fastest and Best and pulls the Express" they could have made him a little faster, thats my only gripe.
I give this O' the indignity Gordon a score of 8/10
Thanks for watching!
