Just had a chance to inspect the newly released Bachmann Class 37/4 Scotrail loco and two of the batch failed to run at all - one bogie was getting the drive but the other none at all - has anyone else had this problem? Bachmann have asked for a return because the cardean shafts have dis-engaged.....
A small issue has arisen with the new Hornby Maunsell coaches as well... on the non-corridor side of the 1st Class corridor coach the centre door seems to be suffering from a surfeit of hinges! Ho hum......
I hasten to add that these coaches are very good, for what are very plain prototypes Hornby have incorporated a lot of fine detail, separate handrails and VERY delicate end steps on the underframes, excellent "first" and "no smoking" signs and good gangway bellows.
