Hornby's Sir Ralph Wedgwood A4 set, is it better than my Bachmann A4 Set?

Fascinating A4?, A4's History and Collectors set. I find this set hard to pass up and I can easily see it running in the McKinley Club time-lapse series. As always well done. Beautiful examples of OO scale models from the past.

Nice set Matt. One interesting piece of research I've just done. 27.56 according to an online inflation etc calculator in 1994, is now worth just under 69 quid. Highlights the absolutely ludicrous prices Hornby ask for poor products today.

I didn't think of that, what a great idea. They would sell more trains at £69! Anyway thanks for watching and sharing the info.

A few of the A4s had the yellow stripe applied so that they werent able to run under the wires on electrified lines around the West Coast Mainline

Three different locos is a huge improvement on the 10 year old mirror image set with different name tags Matt. They look good and run welll. Great for anyone's collection. 👍 Happy modelling

Thanks Matt - great review of a really collectible set. There is a set for sale locally equivalent to £300.

I think they are probably worth that, I was quite impressed.

After the Air Raid, the Tender was not that badly damaged. So it was repaired and then ran behind Bittern. A nice set. I like the A4s. Only 2 of them are Loco driven. Martin. (Thailand)

My 1960 Hornby Dublo loco hauls better than any new plastic model.
@dustyshelfcollectables
@dustyshelfcollectables 8 месяцев назад
I love the older dublo locos, they have such a presence and literally thunder along. I still believe tender driven plastic are the weakest. Thanks for watching and taking the time to share your comments.

Very interesting video, most informative. I found it particularly interesting as my A4 is a Hornby TTS sound Railroad ‘Gadwall’. I think I need the wartime 4469 ‘Sir Ralph Wedgewood’.

Back when Hornby made models actually worth collecting, now it's just Beatles toys.

I remember seeing "Dominion of Canada" at Newcastle quite a few years ago but it was really Bittern in one other numerous guises. By the way its GADWALL

the alloy gear in the middle I suggest replacing with brass as the alloy gear slips, and oil both sides of the motor bearing :)

Nice video! Please be aware though the two differing levels of volume between the music and speaking parts of your excellent video. If your using in ear pieces when watching, this can be very unpleasant! I love your collection of collectables. Thanks!

price on the box has to have been a second hand item , full price would be double that in 94
@dustyshelfcollectables
@dustyshelfcollectables 8 месяцев назад
I originally thought that, but them I don't recall Beaties doing second hand.
