This new loco from Hornby sets a very high standard:-

Hornby Class 09 "Dick Hardy" Review

It is very difficult to see how Hornby could top this and in terms of the value that Hornby are offering with this new model they must now be the number one manufacturer in Europe.

If any of you have purchased one of the new Class 08/09 locos then you are invited to share your thoughts as the review seems too good to be true!

Happy modelling
Gary

I don't know about me being more knowledgeable but I think you will find that the windscreen end complete with wipers is forward, I must admit it looks odd with the "bonnet" at the back, but as you say you can please yourself which end you want as forward.

I bought one from a train fair last weekend, chipped it and am awestruck by the speed control available.
