Back in the 80s when nothing else was available I ran a Wrenn 8F 2-8-0, Standard 2-6-4 Tank, and also had a Wrenn Merchant Navy.
When the Hornby Tender Drive 8F came I 'retired' the Wrenn version and same with the Bachmann 2-6-4 Tank -these were so much better looking models.
Then when we moved home I disposed of the Wrenns and most of my tender drive locos.
H-D Wrenn were good for their time but do not compare with the standards of today - some of us yearn for the old days but when it comes to models we've never had it so good.
