Opening the Hornby J94 NCB Locomotive

- The Hornby J94 featured in this video is special for several reasons! Firstly, it's been sent in by the very kind Jon Sharman, secondly it's called 'Whiston' and is now based at the Foxfield Railway. Finally, it's a cracking little model and I have to get one!
Thank you to Jon Sharman for kindly sending her in for a review!

Hi Will,
A bit late to the party arent I?
I recently purchased this locomotive from my local shop and it is a BEAUTY. It’s absolutely stunning and gorgeous, and considering it’s a 2001 DC Locomotive, I was blown away by its crawl speed.
I also believe it or not work on the Foxfield Line (I should really get some wagons to represent that) and every now and then help Steve Turner (the owner of Whiston and the Chairman of Foxfield) with his stunningly gorgeous locomotive as she is currently under her 10 year boiler renewal.
It’s such a pleasure to work with her and Steve and I really do hope one day I get to crew her, whether that be driving or firing her.
Excellent video of the 'Austerity' Will. There are tons of different liveries available, but i personally recommend either 'Harry' in NCB Red or 'Peter' and 'Joseph' in NCB Light Green. All the best. Cameron
First hornby train i bought as a kid along with a My First Hornby set
Nice review and have a wonderful and blessed day! God bless you!
I absolutely love the J94, such a useful loco. I always wanted the green NCB but settled on a BR black one ;)
I want Wilbert.
Great to see her running ! An excellent vid as always Will and I would love to meet up sometime. All the best , Jon
if you had an awards show every year for the locomotives you review this one would win worlds cutest locomotive!!!
Excellent little loco with great detailing.
This engine is one of my all time favourers and is a great buy 😉
Austerity Type Everyone has their favourites!
Always loved J94! Great vid as well
All the best
Patman
PeterPat Post Thanks - yes, I had no idea they were so nice.
Awesome review!
What a beautiful little steam locomotive. I generally don't like a green livery as much as a blue livery but this is stunning. Another good review Will.
I think when u went 2 a visit 2 a railway I saw that j94 in a siding but apart from that this is 1 of my favorite train reviews great job 👍🏻🚂
A must for any industrial railway!
I love you're videos they've helped me a lot with my layout
Number of things to correct you here mate.
Firstly the Black 5's have a power rating of 5, hence being called a black 5. The design of the locomotives was firstly done by the War Department and built by various builders such as Hunslet, Bagnall, Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn etc, the design after WWII was then adopted and altered by the LNER/BR who added in various handrails, footsteps to increase accessibility and make the locos more user friendly. They also added on some locos, not all, an extended bunker to increase the range. From these alterations of the original WD Austerity 0-6-0ST, you have the LNER/BR J94. With the number of locos preserved, the amount is around 70 have been preserved making them the most preserved class of locomotive in Britain. A lot of Austerities worked well on through the 60's and well into the 70's before being withdrawn, unlike the J94's which would've been withdrawn between 1960 and 1967.
Hi Will, I would strongly recommend the NCB Kent dark blue livery for the j94 because its a very smart livery.
P.S 70 j94 austerity locomotives were preserved. Also Will if your ever in the English and Scottish borders on the east coast I would recommend the Heatherslaw light railway, it runs between Heatherslaw mill and Etal village. Its about five miles from Berwick upon Tweed , I volunteer there every Sunday, I also volunteer there on Sundays and Wednesdays in school holidays.
Excellent video and I can't believe you saw the real one. I need one and I'd like it in LMR. What a nice engine
Hey Will, great vid. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to see what livery u get on your own j94 . I look forward for the next video
ToLocateMCDiamonds Thanks for the comment! Yes I shall definitely treat myself to one soon.
InterCity82 Thanks for replying! Also as a suggestion could you do a series called "Steamie Saturday" where you run steam locos of different types or from different railways on your track. This is only a suggestion and i understand if you say no. You seem like a very busy man.
very nice model!
Will, this loco is not a J94, it is a Hunslet Austerity. The two are similar, but the easiest way to tell them apart is that the J94 has sqaure windows (on the back) and a taller coal bunker and the Austerity has circular windows. Just thought I'd point that out. The LNER did not create this Austerity loco, they simply adopted it because of it's huge success. In fact, these Austerities we're so good some kept on running in places like power stations and coal mines way into the late 70s and even the very early 80s!
Aw it's such a cute loco
Hoorah! I saw the bus :-)
Nice videos as always dude. I had a hornby set when i was younger unfortunately no more but enjoy your enthusiasm. Was in york for the mallard special and it was awesome. Did you ever visit miniature world in Germany the world's largest indoor model railway.
I'm impressed with this model. You should review another north american locomotive sometime soon.
i always look for this one
Hunslet , also Hudswell Clarke in Leeds where I live! 😊
Love my Austerity 0-6-0ST in NCB Kent blue livery, check out the review. They are more powerful than I thought, can manage around 5 to maybe 6 coaches fine, but perfectly suit light passenger & goods trains 😊
The LNER bought 75 of them back in about the 40s think it was, also for the War Department as well, that's when they were then classified as LNER class J94, some had a few slight modifications. They be quite a history behind them these little locos, think a few went to work abroad as well . Great review 😊
BritishRailways60163 Thanks for the info and the kind feedback!
Hey intercity the Tanfield railway ( my altimeter FAVOURET) has 2 j94s one is a similar green to the model in the review and the other it black . I highly recommend you go their as it's very close to Newcastle 😉 lovely loco I got the j94 in ncb blue but hope to get more soon 😄 nice review
Tanfield has 2 Austerities not J94's. Backworth No. 49 and Vane Tempest "Gamma"
Grown up amongst This Locomotive "Whiston".
I think I've seen one of these trsins at an old mine in Wales called the big pit.
only two BR/LNER J94s were preserved, all the others are hunslet austerity 0-6-0s however some have been disguised as BR/LNER J94s, aswell as 70 hunslet austerity 0-6-0s being preserved
The real loco was in 'Transporting' back when it had a boiler certificate.
I have one and it’s great
I've been behind that same engine a couple of Christmas ago at my local railway centre with my granddad and Hornby has presented it lovely and would you like to see a old Hornby class 43 with two mk3 coaches?
9:51 and 11:27, Hmmmmm. You know what would make those cutouts more funny and enjoyable? If you replace the weird angelic choirs with that funny spider-man thing that was used in the old show. You know, the Da-Da-Da-Da-Daaaa!
***** Unfortunately... that is copyrighted!
InterCity82 Well I mean make a spinoff of the original tune, so it would still be funny. DUH!
The black 5 was actually referred to as a 5MT by BR witch means it was a 5F. (I think)
There is a J94 that lives on Peak Rail near where I live named Lord Phil.
I love your account you HAVE to see New Zealand's heritage lines
It's about 70 that have been preserved.
Where can I get that train? It's beautiful!
Most of the detail is added by the owner and not by Hornby btw but it still is a very nice loco
A J94 in red would be great.
No, Green Is Already Good
Red exist btw
PercyFan1998 I prefer green like ugly at the spa valley railway
Cool 😎 train 🚂
I love small steam locos I with I had one of these
You should do one of those Draw My Life kind of things!
i saw one lol it was in blue didnt get it hoping to next time if its there still lol as it was the smallest of all of em so i found it super cute lol
I've always wondered if you've got a hunslet 0-4-0
You should get one in Blue!
Hornby had an easy ride here, a copy and paste of the Dapol J94. Dapol deserve the credit really, fantastic detail and such low gearing, six wheel pick ups, built for shunting. : )
Regards, Cliff.
janiceandcliff Oh right! Thanks for letting me know - but how come it ended up being a Hornby model?
InterCity82 Hi Will, just done a bit of "Googling". It appears Hornby bought quite a lot of tooling from Dapol back in 1996, probably rolling stock plus locos and some older Airfix moulds aswell. Seems surprising they let this one go, but Hornby make it now.
Cheers, Cliff.
hi ci 82 how u to day
hi ci 82 how u to day
I might get a J94 for my birthday.
I want one! Curse my lack of money! >.
I know you already have a flying Scotsman but can you do a review on a twin tender flying scotsman
I too collect oo engines ive got at least 20 locos my favourite one is my hall class
i live in Norfolk near the mid suffolk light rail way they have a train called "wissington"looks the same as this well a bit different but yeah
blue!
I went on engine 19 irl was cool
you should get Hornby Austerity 0-6-0st j94 no.12 ncb
I real life I have bin on the steam loco I went on it on the Fox Field steam railway and it is a loverly loco
Shouts loudly to the fans! "FAN MEET UP, FAN MEET UP!!" 😜
I've got a J94 in maroon. It's a United Steel Company loco
you should have a j94 in LNER black livery or NCB blue.
I just watched a review of this loco in a blue livery, also by Hornby. The level of detail was no where as good as the detail on this model?
Speaking of cab detail, when's Henry's turn for a review? When you look at his cab, *then* you will understand what "No cab detail" really means and owe several models you've reviewed an apology
I say go with the NCB livery. It's a very handsome livery, and this particular make of the J94 is available in it. And if you get this particular J94 for yourself, then you can compare what is stock and what is custom.
Will can you please do a class E2 locomotive
Great videos doing any more because you haven't uploaded in a month or two
They have that real train at Stratford bus station the same locomotive
where do you buy all of the set?
Thats the basis from wilbert and sixteen
can you do a opening of the p2 cock o the north, i´m planning to buy 1 but you can hopefully give some more information
Mark Buitenhuis I will try to find a slot for it sometime this Summer.
thx
70 = J94s are preserved.
+Ben Jenden actually only two "J94" exist. The rest are all basic off the shelf industrial or WD versions. Only those in service with LNER were dubbed as J94s.
That J94 reminds of a certain character from the railway Series...
Hmm I wonder... Who could it be?
Mysteries
Patman
PeterPat Post My Butt.
Wilbert?
didn't you see that train at the foxfield railway but the full size
he did
Dose the smoke box open
i have the hornby Lner J94 no 8009 its like this but black
BR black with british railways in cream on its side
ok i thought id tell you ok so when you started the locomotive,the commercial for choo choo bob show came on and the lights started to flash when the loco started up lol
the you know saftey lights
holly weaver How random!
can you please do more DCC steam loco videos
They arent technically lner engines they were designed for shunting for the war department as they were designed to be simple to build and repair and those characteristics are why the national coal board used so many.
black 5 is 5mt and j94 had the nickname austerity
The Austerity was a war time loco so used worse materials to the J94. It also had a slightly different design.
Do the billing e2 please
J94s are some sort of like a saddle tank engine
Do u use track magic
please can you uplode a steam train raviwe at least one a week I am a big fan :)
Hi I'm just geting in to trains again and I need some tips
Well I'm willing to help but I need to know which aspect of the hobby you need help with
Thegamingkid I'd be happy 2 help but I need 2 know what scale and what brand your going 2 use
Scale wise, the coal is too big. It's a nice touch and all but to scale, theres a 3ft boulder of coal on the back of that train. Fireman would be having kittens trying to deal with that chunk. haha
Blue livery
How quiet a runner is she?
I wish i was able to begin with model railway.
I have sadly no space where i could put it. I have barely any space for a small workbench in my house.
If i put anything more it may affect the fire safety in my home. like not being able to use easy exits during fires and stuff like that.
I need to buy some garage or something in the future where I'm able to do model railway and other things in.
Try n scale. If there is no space for that,Get Z Scale,its smaller than a quarter in size,Literally! If you have no space For that,Get TT Scale.
I don't think i would have space for a 1:1420 scale if it even existed.
it doesn't really bother me that I'm not able to do model railway right now. I have a lot to do learning about electronics at this current time.
Crozix just put a Railway truh your house, just 1 rail against the wall(sorry for my bad english)
I wish my small steam engine and old diesel worked on my track, my track isnt working D:
GREEN
You have a cat? I demand you show us your cat.
allor
Next TGV : )
and mallard
And tornado
That is rod
Can someone explain to me how those gigantic lumps of coal are realistic on 00 scale models?
Will, your number on survivors of the class is a bit wrong.. out of 485 Austerities built, around about 70 have survived. 3 of which are in my neck of the woods!
They were designed by the Hunslet Engine Company from '43 to '64 and were Austerity engines. They were never given the classification of J94 until the LNER acquired 75 of them. Only the LNER (and later BR operated) ones have this classification.
The LNER J94s were fitted with a tall coal bunker. I'm not sure of other modifications, but that is the main difference that can be seen between the Austerity and J94s.
Don't trust all this as 100% correct. Well, only the last sentences.
Whiston is a nice Saddle Tank Engine. But I can highly recommend a better engine to you than her. I know she's on loan to you, yet the engine I've already got is one you should get for yourself. She's a Great Western Tender Engine of the 4-4-0 kind. You'll find her online in three model shops:
NRM in York, £149
Locomotion Models Shop, NRM, Shildon, £149
Rails of Sheffield, £139
If you want a model that ticks all of the boxes, City of Truro is the one for you. You won't be disappointed.
If you are going to get rid of a whole B model train Daisy give it to me
Please please please can you
o sorry my real name is gerrard
get southern livery
THATS THE SAME CLASS AS BILL AND BEN FROM THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE!!!!!!!!!!
