Next I need a Class 105 or 108! For months and months, loads of people told me they wanted to see me review the Class 158 by Bachmann - so here it is! And very nice it is too, I must say (the smart Arriva livery helps lol) Enjoy!

I have a real Frankenstein's monster of a 158. The power car was fitted with internal lights and overhauled by someone before I bought it on eBay. The dummy unit, however, I bought in bits and assembled myself. A window was missing, which was annoying. All in Regional though.

Over the last few months, I've come to realise how much I love 158s. 159s, which are practically the same with an extra coach, are great too. 158 bashing never gets old.

@OldSkoolGrandad 12 лет назад

Really enjoyed watching the video..looking forward to the next review..makes it a bit easier choosing my next loco !

@TravelJackJourneys158 7 лет назад

thank you for the info! You learn something new every day!

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

I definitely recommend them, they're great! And yes, apparently the odd looking green isn't helped by the white skirting board - it would mean changing the camera settings just for Arriva liveried models lol - maybe I will see what I can do the next time I review a model wearing Arriva colours.

@tpe18509 12 лет назад

Nice vid and a nice addition! I'm waiting bachmann for that tpe 185!! :D

@Cpr1234 4 года назад

When I first came across this channel, I liked comparing the view counts of this and the 170, and as Arriva operated through my home town with the 158 I always wanted this to get more views than the 170 video, and today it does. I feel quite honoured

@BritishRailways60163 12 лет назад

Excellent review! Very smooth performance there :)

@chambs123 12 лет назад

Excellent review Will as always however.....I wouldn't expect anything less from you! Top-man again! Cheers, John.

Bachmann are bringing out the East Midlands Trains & Regional Railways class 158... Hopefully this will be out late 13 early 14. They are a brand new build with DCC ready (regional railways is DCC sound fitted) looking forward to them both

@PanyDexiades 10 лет назад

thats the east midlands livery by bachmann

@cookoo4cocopuffs221 4 года назад

I see Class 158s ALL the time in Hartlepool. The First North Eastern livery (the old one with the purple and white stripe) and the new livery (white carriages with a purple swirl) is a mere shadow of what it once was

@thebritfarmer 11 лет назад

Nice looking DMU, I am hoping to pick up both of the new 158s when they come out.

@RailsOfTheWorld 12 лет назад

This is amazing will i loved the part at 14:49 with all the LMS engines in line you said "i love this class 1 158 instead of 158"

@tjfSIM 12 лет назад

Your camera really doesn't like Arriva blue does it! :) Great vid, I remember when the 158 units first entered service and you're right, they were very prestigious and luxurious for their time!

@mirageinthedesert5448 6 лет назад

14:38 I never knew that a class 58 is a dmu

@foxcell 12 лет назад

@teebo4041 2 года назад

I've got this 'Exact' model Arriva Livery Dmu Class 158 /class 153 & class 150' and now waiting for royal mail to complete my fleet with hornby's class 142 pacer in arriva! Keeping them Pristine/Mint in my Glass cabinet for static display! 👍

Great review - my favoutite too. I have 3 - the arriva one, regional railways 3 car and network southeast 3 car - they're superb.

@robsweatherchannel 7 лет назад

I love class 158, I really want one, but not sure on livery but I like Northern rail the most tbh!

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

Definitely! You won't regret it. Bear in mind the new one is coming out soon too.

@ShadowGamer-dt6yp 9 лет назад

@dylanjennison7097 10 лет назад

Can you connect it to other 158

@TheGWRailfan 5 лет назад

I live in Exeter next to st David's railway station and I go to Cardiff and see my best train the class 158,150,159,43,153 my best train classes EVER!!!

@TransportCambs 8 лет назад

When can you review the Freightliner or Colas Rail class 70 by bachmann?

@TheRailScene 12 лет назад

I just thought I would have a look on Wiki for the definition of Multiple Unit to make sure and these are the two main definitions; 'The term multiple unit or MU is used to describe a self-propelled carriages capable of coupling with other units of the same or similar type and still being controlled from one driving cab.' 'Single self-propelling carriages (also called railcars, rail motor coaches or railbuses) can be referred to as multiple units if capable of operating with other units.'

@rapidracer6722 7 лет назад

I love this train!!

@UkGeoFF09 12 лет назад

Been a Bachmann club member continuously for the last seven years, unlike the intermittent Hornby membership. Bach's magazine is far superior to Hornbys, you get a free catalogue and a nice calender each Xmas. Their PO wagon that you get for joining is much more useful for a "serious" railway modeller. Only negative is the lack of a members discount in shops (never used the Hornby one anyway).

@SamsChannelOfRandomStuff Месяц назад

I’ve got a regional railways 158, and it’s really good!

@TheGWRailfan 4 года назад

The workhorse of the Cambrian Coast line... Nice

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

thanks for the info!

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

thank you my friend!

@locomotiveAlex1996 12 лет назад

i am in the collectors club, you get a free wagon and access to exclusive events and models, you also get a quaterly magazine, but its easily the better collectors club to be in

@impy1980 12 лет назад

In response to the green, it did look turquise at one stage, do you have your camera on manual white balance, if it's on auto that could cause the shift in colour. Again great review, really do enjoy your enthuasism. Never been interested in DMU's but between you and Everard I'm slowly changing my mind and may get one sometime if the price is right. I've just brought 15 yrd of Peco flexitrack, need to knock up some temporary 1x4ft baseboards and I'll do a video, I know you've expressed interest.

@Hornby09c 11 лет назад

Hey I just went on the Bachmann website and saw that they have their new 158 out in DCC fitted only. They are in East Midlands Trains and Regional Railways livery.

@mocyoung 11 лет назад

There were/are 4 variations on the Arriva 158 livery: the original ex-Wales & West silver and blue with just the Arriva logo, this livery with the white "horns" on the front, a similar green without the horns, and the new dark blue / green livery used on the re-furbished units.

@37116comet 12 лет назад

Nice review :) its a shame the camera couldnt pick up the correct colour of ATW's livery. I'm planning on geting a new Bachmann 158 in Arriva Trains Wales livery, to go with my 150 and 153 :)

@Xantec 12 лет назад

I have travelled on several 158s, usually on the Stockport - Sheffield trans pennine line. Not a bad ride, though Trans Pennine Express Air Con didnt usually seem to work, found it more comfortable to sit on the jump-seat in the compartment between the main passenger cabin and the drivers cab when the main cabin was full as it was often cooler than the main passenger cabin. oh Thailand brought 158s in meter gauge as well :D

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

that's quite a long road, with the southern end of it practically coming out at Crewe Works if I'm not mistaken.

@AlexanderFoist 12 лет назад

I'd recommend joining the Bachmann Club as I'm pretty happy with it. I was thinking of either joining that or the hornby club but from what I've recently read I think I did the right thing. There seems to be a lot of people coming out the hornby club as the impression I get is that it is going downhilll. You get some good articles in the magazine and rather surprisingly quite a lot are about the 'real railway' rather than models but that's no concern with me.

@93spoz 12 лет назад

Notice how with the 158 you can see the seats in the motor car Will! You complained about the 150 having blacked out windows. Well the 158 doesn't! Great review

@mocyoung 11 лет назад

Not quite - 158s were done in 2 and 3-car sets ( - the 159s are technically 158 units that were rebuilt with additional interior features like 1st Class and retention toilets for Network South East. 3-car 158s include 158798, 158752 - 158759 and the pesudo 3-car units now used by FGW designated 158/9

@wab31 12 лет назад

The couplers are the standard coupling of mostly each coach/locomotive.

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

Thanks John! Thank you for the comment!

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

ahhh right! Thanks for the info - don't feel quite so bad now haha

@BrickishRail 12 лет назад

Yay, reviews :)

@YM-yg3pw 8 лет назад

first great western

@Ryan871 12 лет назад

Very good. You should get the 108 DMU by bachmann in BR Green with speed whiskers. It has interior lighting as well as head and tail ones and thats just with DC! . Bachmann DMU's are amazing!

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

Thank you!

@ILikeTransport 6 лет назад

I have a regional railways class 158 but i would prefer an arriva but i could not find an arriva version. Do you want to swap.

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

I LOVE that idea. Thanks for the comment!

@JimS6025 12 лет назад

Nice review, im guessing these are like a subway train? If so I think I shal pick up some in the northern livery!

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

Thank you for the comment! I shall do my best.

@ryanelger07 11 лет назад

RE: Air Con on class 158s... Air Con? When it's working! Bit like the heating! They both work only when the opposite is needed! Or not at all. I remember being stuck on one at Doncaster a few years ago. It was at least -8 outside! I do like them though. 153s and 150s also Good video. Just wish Bachmann would make them DCC ready!

@janmarsh 11 лет назад

have you done a review of a class 66? cos I want one. By the way does it come with freight?

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

thank you!

@hornbystuff626 6 лет назад

@OfficialMidlandsRailwayChannel 12 лет назад

@railfreek1247 12 лет назад

Hi Your reviews are great!!! I've got a question? Shall I get a class 153 northern rail livery or a class 158 northern livery. Thanks

Coming Soon! The IC82 CD Soundtrack! Comes with the top rated song of all time: It's a 158 and it Means Nothing to Me! In addition, famous IC82 catchphrases, such as "Did you miss me?" and "Give her some juice!) Out Soon! lol

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

Yes I meant to say 108 but was obviously too excited haha - not worth filming the whole thing again tho.

@julianwhitbred7070 10 лет назад

I like Bachmann class 220, 158 and 170 however none are DCC ready or fitted. It's so annoying.

@TheRailScene 12 лет назад

I agree with you, but multiple unit means that the unit itself can be coupled to other multiple units of similar class. For example in my area, you often see a 155 with a 153 tagged on the back. Besides, the 153s used to be 155 DMUs anyway until they were 'sliced up' as you might say! It is very confusing.

Ding Dong “The next train to depart from platform 2 will be the 15:46 Bachmann Arriva trains wales service to Manchester Piccadilly calling at Manchester Airport and Manchester Piccadilly when boarding the train please mind the gap between the train and the platform edge”

@PayasYouListen 12 лет назад

I really want a 158 but I'm going to wait for the new tooling that Bachmann announced this year. Regional Railways Express livery of course.

@InterCity82 11 лет назад

Yes, a video on it is up!

@wakkowarner2572 8 лет назад

+Cheeky Rollins It is very rare for us to get a 158, all we get is the 333, 321 and 322.

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

to be honest it's not just the fact that one of the units is blacked out - it's also a very noisy model! All I'm saying is sometimes Bachmann pay more attention to the outside of their models than they do the insides.

@666seperoth 11 лет назад

I am in the bachman collectors club when you join you get a train, my train is a nice little class n2 in GWR livery, the one in oxford where I live is very well organized and he people there are very welcoming

@InterCity82 12 лет назад

I'm afraid I do not know where you can buy models of trains that run in Portugal.

@AlexanderFoist 12 лет назад

I used to work for Arriva and I used to find that the Pantone colour they use for the aquamarine is often difficult to pick up by cameras, photographs and even printers ! I think it's just one of those things!

@mocyoung 11 лет назад

Aside from charters, you will only ever see four types of train at Swansea. ATW 175, ATW Sprinters (150/3/8), ATW Pacer and FGW HSTs.
