    This doesn’t outshine the LBSC Atlantics, but it’s a close second. The GNR small and large Atlantics are quite beautiful locos; I’m glad examples of both have been preserved.

    Once an engine attached to a train was afraid of a few drops of rain he went into a tunnel and smoked out his funnel and would come out again (Henry was originally going to be a C1 Atlantic)

    10.20 Those little brass boxes on top of the driving-wheel splashers are oil-boxes, connected by piping to the main bearings on the driving-wheel axles -- which are otherwise quite unreachable by the driver when oiling round.
    Triang-Hornby used to offer some of their locos as a pack of sub-assemblies at a slightly lower price, for the delighted kid in us all to slot/clip/screw together for even more fun. These were the CKD or 'completely knocked down' range. Perhaps Bachmann is thinking of introducing a 'partially knocked down' range.

    Remember that the LBSCR H1 is the C1's cousin - they were basically the same (Douglas Earle-Marsh came to the LBSCR from the GNR) - with the only difference being that the LBSCR Atlantics had bigger cylinders, and thus didn't need to be thrashed as much as the GNR types.

    A fantastic review, Sam! Bachmann Branch-Line and Locomotion never fail to deliver a gorgeous model to the collector.
    I have one of the Locomotion Models that is from Bachmann Branch-Line, and it happens to be a goods engine-- BR 9F 92220 "Evening Star"!
    I don't think I've ever had my breath taken away by a Bachmann model before, and Evening Star is just such a handsome looking goods engine.
    I am surprised that you had a bit of difficulty with the sleeve for your locomotive; the sleeve for Evening Star slips on and off smoothly. The only Locomotion sleeve that gives me grief is for the Hornby Southern Q1, and only him!
    I do hope you pick up a few more of these wonderful Locomotion models. Their level of detail and performance is downright phenomenal.

    Before the video: let me guess, sam is going to say the model is overpriced
    After the video: Bachmann outdid themselves with this one. This model is a home run. The best LNER style apple green livery I’ve ever seen on any model locomotive, so many separately fitted intricate details, really slow crawl, die cast running board, metal whistle, painted gauges in the cab, openable smoke box, tender pick ups, and proper bearings.
    The best bachmann locomotive I’ve ever seen. This one exceeded everyone’s expectations and finally a bachmann model where it’s value for money is above average.

    I laughed out loud when you said the Atlantic was unusual.
    Of course I understand they're unusual in the UK but here in the states American Flyer's flagship cheapo S scale locomotive was an atlantic and they are EVERYWHERE to the point I bought a running parts engine for $5 at a train show to two months ago.
    Another great video. Keep doing what you do.

    Hello Sam,
    That's a wonderful review of the Bachmann NRM Great Northern C1 Atlantic No.251, I have one too, they are beautiful models, the detail and the running performance is excellent.
    Wow, you got it for £130.00 at Warley Model Railway Exhibition in Birmingham back in November 2018, what a bargain, I've paid mine for £179.00 on Locomotion Models, it's very expensive, but it's worth it.
    Now you have 2 Bachmann 4-4-2 Atlantic Locomotives, I'm still planning to get the Bachmann H1 La France very soon, from Rails of Sheffield very likely.
    Once again, a wonderful review.

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned Henry yet. When Henry was build in 1919 he was a mix between an Gnr A1 and a C1. This caused Henry to have problems building up steam. This all changed after his crash with the flying Kipper. After said crash the green engine was sent to crewe and was rebuild into an LMS Black 5.

    These used to run out of Keighley (where the KWVR is) to Bradford (as they are GNR). Sadly the line that they used to run on has been taken up. So in my village I have no train station anymore. But my great grandad tells me the times when he was a boy and he would see them going over a viaduct in our village!

    Hello Sam, This is my 1st time commenting, I watched your unboxing of the Bachman 1218 Pere Marquette, and I got one! and I love it! I also just recently picked up the Hornby Mallard train set, and I love it also. So I was wondering if you could run the Pere M., Mallard, and the Flying Scotsman (which I want to get next) together and do a mini-review/comparison of them. Also I have a question, the Bachman and Hornby trains and coaches have very different couplers, is there a way to get an adapter to run the US trains with the Hornby coaches, or vice versa?

    The Ivatt Atlantics looked really great to me. Actually, the C1s pulled Pullman trains in LNER ownership, the Harrogate Pullman train service, so you can let her pull some Pullman coaches, which would certainly look lovely with the apple green and the coaches’ umber and cream.
