Experience the halcyon days of nationalised BR with our replication of the preserved K&WVR Standard 2MT. This Club Exclusive model features fine extensive piping detail, a sliding roof vent on the cab and sprung buffers.
For extra modelling detail, a snow plough is included in the accessory bag for you to attach via the NEM pocket if you wish to do so. Front steps are also included in the accessory bag which will need to be glued in place. Finally, the vivid BR Green livery is a feast for the eyes and captures the preserved locomotive in its entirety.

Hi Andy, A most inspiring, enjoyable review and decoder install. Superb steam locomotive and the sound adds another dimension to the fun of operating this little beauty. Thank you for this honest positive review! It's a bit pricey but on top of my wish list. Cheers, Filip

@modeloco 6 месяцев назад

Hi Filip, Your words are very encouraging. It’s a superb model. No regrets. It’s not always so of course but, love these latest die cast designs from Hornby. The loco matched, geared design enabling much greater control and smoother running, even at amazingly slow speeds. Although still very quick, having a much more realistic top end, where coaches don’t fly off on every bend, like some train sets of old, racing off, with immediate effect, acting more like a Scalextric set on full throttle 😂🙏

Great video and thanks for showing hm7000 set up

@modeloco 5 месяцев назад

Big Thanks! 🙏 Yes, I’m liking this system more and more and as for the 2MT running with the recently released Sound Profile. It runs like a dream and sounds better than I ever imagined 👍

@paredding 2 месяца назад

Very impressive. I just ordered the Lined Green version on sale at Rails. That's a good idea to use the images from the Hornby website too. Cheers

Thank you and yes, did want the KWVR Model but, seems a good offer too 👍

That sounds interesting shame he’s not on you tube. I’ve actually now found some footage I took of the 2MT but, mostly it’s the 4MT I encounter in Haworth 👍

Insulating tape holds in any heat that the decoder chips generate. Kapton tape is better in the long run and not expensive. Also not as thick as the insulating tape so it is easier to cover potential shorting points.

@modeloco 3 месяца назад

Thanks David, Not heard of this as I’m from a more engineering background. Always wondered what they called it ❤

@modeloco 3 месяца назад

What width from experience would you recommend if any - 20mm?

@DavidJones-hd1jj 3 месяца назад

I have found 12mm to 20mm the most useful, but multi-packs are cheap enough from the well-known online mail order sites. I was given this advice from my far more experienced colleagues at the layout I help with. Jenny Kirk also uses it - see fitting a decoder to a Class 20.

@DavidJones-hd1jj 3 месяца назад

I do wonder why some of us have no problems with HM7000 while others have multiple failures. Badly specified power supplies could be one reason. Failure to protect against shorts could be another. Over-driving speakers could be another. In my opinion, HM set the default volume level far too high. I find a setting of 15 to 25 is plenty for home use. After that you are just pushing up the distortion. As a rule of thumb you have to double the output power to get any perceived increase in volume, and it will not be too long before those abused, tiny speakers start overheating and burning out if you keep "pumping up the volume". HM had to provide enough power to keep the large-speaker users happy but I think they could have been a bit clearer about what the supplied speaker can take.

P.S. I really enjoy your reviews - keep them coming!

Hi The hornby 2MT sound file is now available to download from Hornby HM 7000 app just wanted to let you know

@modeloco 7 месяцев назад

That’s very kind of you and exciting news 👍

@andrewmeah3082 7 месяцев назад

Your welcome

@marcobuijs1271 7 месяцев назад

I think i will give the HM7000 a chance and compare it with Loksound Accurascale Manor. That 2MT sure has a lot of detail!

@modeloco 7 месяцев назад

Certainly glad I did 👍

@andrewmeah3082 7 месяцев назад

The 2mt sound file is due to be added in the fourth qtr of this year so shouldn't be to long arriving hopefully

Hi Does the loco come with a ltd edition certificate thanks

@modeloco 7 месяцев назад

Hello, No Certificate with this one, did have another check just in case. Hope that helps 👍

@criminal__8615 7 месяцев назад

so in your opinion do you think OO is a much better choice over TT, all i seem to hear of is issues with tt so am not convinced of it yet, nice train btw

@modeloco 7 месяцев назад

Could you describe the issues you seem to be hearing about?

@criminal__8615 7 месяцев назад

@@modeloco motors failing, parts of train front bogies falling apart on delivery, lack of pulling power on inclines, it seems the hornby forum has a few people talking about these sorts of issues and more, I dont know maybe 2nd gen runs of the tt scale locos might get some of this stuff sorted out, and of course variety of locos in OO over tt, bering in mind it takes time to build up a stable of different locos from the manufacturer

@modeloco 7 месяцев назад

@@criminal__8615 I’d definitely say these first locomotives won’t climb gradients, especially if there’s a slight bend. Not had issues with anything else apart from the initial confusion over analogue mode running which saw me returning one locomotive. The advice has since been amended. I’d say the Class 45’s will have a much better weight. The detail is outstanding and the scale is great for smaller spaces.

@criminal__8615 7 месяцев назад

@@modeloco i definatly love the scale compared to n scale, and see more steam locos coming in 3rd and 4th waves, I am simply hesitant atm and weighing my options, eg if you have a 9 mtre x 6 mtre shed to build a model railway, what scale would you go?
