Lamp is off centre depicting loco towards end of steam, done to protect crew from overhead catenary

I told you mine had come on the last video. I had no plans to ever have steam locos, on my layout. Never mind a Hornby !
This black 5 is the ultimate. Its an amazing model.
Looks brilliant, runs brilliant (straight out of the box, not even run in properly yet)
Sounds awesome too.
Haven't had time yet to get it steaming, will have a go tomorrow.
Well done Hornby. I've been amazed by it.
Thanks Mike

What is the product number of the updated Black 5 with clack moved back with Steam Generation (44875)?

[michaelclaydon]

Thanks for the review, to give me the confidence to take the plunge. And buy this great model. Cheers Mike

Hi Andy.
Love seeing you explaining your dcc. I'm dc only my one brain can't cope I'm afraid. ☹

Just love the look of all the steamers with or without smoke.

Thanks for the update Andy.
Thumbs up thumped 👍

With the steam bridging the chimney Hornby told me to use a tiny amount of petroleum jelly on the inside of the chimney of my flying Scotsman

It certainly helps with the steam. I do it about every four fills of the tank

The top feeds on some of the black fives were in different places on the boiler depending on what workshop made them so Hornby has modelled this

I've really enjoyed your videos on the Steam models

[michaelclaydon]

Thanks for doing the review, giving me the confidence to take the plunge.

Nice to hear the Casey Jones theme. I've always associated that as the main theme tune for this channel.

[Hoxfoxyt]

the top feed on the top witch you where saying was changed (i think that's what you where talking about) is likely that way because of the tooling diffraces and because on the real ones there are ones with it in this spot but other wize this is a cool model and video its really cool that hornby can do this now

[Rturn]

She is so beautiful, so considering it, and the Hush Hush

But I would absolutely love a Black 5 in TT! So hope they (Hornby) let us know of a TT event soon

[adrianarnold]

Having a quick look on Wiki, the water top feed casing was set forward on various Black 5s and, yes, this particular loco was one of them

[racingpete]

I believe all the Caprotti fitted Black Fives had the top feed in the middle of the loco boiler, you can see this on 44726, which is in preservation, so with this new model being the Caprotti version is correct.

[Rturn]

She is absolutely beautiful
I am so so tempted, with the Black 5 and the Hush Hush

But I really do hope they, Hornby, have a TT event soon and have a Black 5 coming THIS YEAR! But nothing stated for any TT announcements as yet

Hi Andy, found nice channel where our locomotive made nicely for video. Please look at the camera position, also how high it is and distance. Easy work but very good for eyes.
New! Hornby Locomotion No.1 era11. Poor Start ended on high. Dcc fitting cured this terrible runner.

[stephenbromley]

You can reverse the directions in cv 29 on the app which is ok if you just use the app but obviously it will also alter it if you use a standard Dcc controller

[LiveSteamNick]

You little beauty, yes you, Andy!!!LOL😂

[damianinCanadaTT-OO]

Like the direction explanation for the app. It always confuses me

[ItsTrainFun]

The light on the front of the loco is not supposed to be there off center, it should be above the handrail on the smokebox door. This holds me back to buy the loco 😢
