Hi Sam: I came across this and I know it is a historical review. The detailed explanation provided is extremely professional and the review of this model is very well done. I am now a confirmed Bristolian and have a railway library, which extols their performance as fast passenger locomotives on the S&DJR. Sam: Although Midland express engines, in the 1950’s they were down graded to secondary passenger duties and were particularly used as such on branch lines, as on the Gloucester Loop Line Barnt Green - Redditch - Evesham -Tewkesbury route, my family’s home. Shedded on the SDJ&R they were used as bankers at Evercreech and pilots from Bath Green Park to Bournemouth mainline. Note the size of the firebox and it will give you some idea of why in their prime they were regarded as 4P by the Midland Railway, the increasing size of carriages proved to be their nemisis. Well Done Excellent Review.

Lovely loco there Sam. Looks like Bachmann have even managed to reproduce the prototypes pulling power. In the 1920's when the LNER excelerated the Flying Scotsman service to run non-stop from London to Edinburgh, the LMS started running the Royal Scott non-stop to Glasgow in response. They tried several ex-LNWR and L&Y designs on the service, but settled on double heaaded Compounds instead to haul the trains until the purpose built Royal Scott class locos were built. And you got to give credit to the loco crews who manned them on those runs, a smaller and more open cab than the A1/A3's and no corridor tender for a quick crew change either - if it was you who fired the train out of Euston, it would still be you firing it into Glasgow Central, and you would have fired over Shap and Beattock summits as well. Keep p the good work Jon

I've also been learning about my local railways and it turns out that a lot of the midland and later designs were used in Northern Ireland as the Northern Counties Committee, basically the same engines just regauged for Irish track but I have also noticed that they have a smokebox dart instead of the midland clamps which in my opinion ruins the look entirely haha. But of course these things were built for passenger and good hauling work, not for looks :P

That's a very impressive loco from Bachmann Sam, I can't find anything to fault it...It's quite incredible the high standard of a ready to run loco can simply be purchased off the shelf...an Excellent review as always Sam.

Greetings from Canada, Hello Sam my friend, I'm enjoying my holiday. I most say, your Bachmann Midland Compound 4-4-0 Steam Loco is looking magnificent, very well detailed, great running performance and very strong too. I got a Bachmann Midland Compound too, the NRM version No.1000 in Midland Railway Maroon livery, I even tested her strength by pulling a long freight train, she wheel slips when she starts to pull the freight train, but she gets underway and finally moves them. The prototype No.1000 is preserved, apart of the National Railway Museum's Collection and located at Barrow Hill Roundhouse. I see 6 4-4-0 Steam Locomotives and the ones appear most in videos, are the LNER D16s I believe. Well done for making this video mate. 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 10/10 😉

Hi sam, I requested a service video specifically for this loco but in the meanwhile I managed to remove the body and check the motor. I then checked the cogs again. Before this, the loco at a slow speed would just jult and wouldnt start even if I applied lots of power and in the forward mode there seems to be quite a noisy sound. It doesnt sound to unhealthy though. In reverse its fine. Could it be the cogs inside. If in responding to this comment there is something you dont understand, ask cause its midnight and its kind of hard to explain as well ;D

Hi Sam, Thanks. Yet again, an excellently prepared, produced & enjoyable video (as we have come to expect from you) & also, what looks to be, a great little model, from Bachmann. Thank you so much for all the excellent work that you do, in sharing your joy & love of model railroading & most especially, the focus that you place, on encouraging youngsters, to become involved, with our wonderful hobby. Finally, can you do me a favour please & just compare your new Bachmann Compound to your Hornby models of the same locomotive. After you have looked carefully at them all, please could you tell me if you think that there appears to be any difference in the building scales, that have been used by the two manufacturers. There has been some commenting/criticism on the net, in recent days, claiming that Hornby OO Scale is in fact smaller, than Bachmann OO Scale? There are lots of historic reasons as to why I think that this might well be the case (over & above the obvious one, that either Hornby or Bachmann, have been sloppy about gauging issues & that one of them is/has, simply been getting their calculations wrong. However, at this point, I'm just trying to ask a simple question amongst those of you who are closest to making comparisons in locos & rolling stock, just to see if there may be some grain of truth, in what is now, just an internet rumour. I must say myself, that I've seen some examples of this myself & from what I've had placed in front of me, it does appear to be true (in those few cases, at least). Many thanks indeed, Andrew

Lovely model here. Interestingly, #41157 starred in Railway Roundabout. Seems as though she’s living on in this model.

Thanks mate, yes that's true, I watched that one recently actually! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)

Hi Sam. Very nice model, I'd be inclined to get one myself honestly, but I don't run much British stuff for my 2-rail. Still a very nice model that is. BTW did you get my email?

You mentioned that the cylinders seemed so small. They're the right size, but the Hornby version is well over-sized, and it's one of the main faults of the Hornby loco. Note that this is an LMS-build locomotive. The Hornby one is a Midland-built locomotive, and the main way you can tell is that the LMS-built locomotives had a flattened dome cover, to keep within the LMS loading gauge, and slightly smaller wheels. They were never called the 1000 class, by the way. Bachmann created that name from the only member preserved, which happened to have the number 1000. When it was built it was a much different locomotive than what is preserved.

Is it the city class the doubles
