Bachmann class 47.

Anyone have any first impressions. As it is the tradition with Bachmann
locos, will they need a couple of goes to get one that I will buy?

Cheers,

Rob.

Ignore some of the nonsense comments in REx. It's got one or two minor
warts but is a pretty cool model in my estimation. The biggest gaff is the
rivets around the cab front windows, but they look so easy to remedy it's
hardly worth a mention. There's also a fuel (or water) gauge out of place
on the fuel tanks, but two seconds with a scalpel will eliminate that.

Sold out at the moment, not sure whether there are any more to come from
Bachmann.
