Due to the somewhat strange design I was a little reluctant to buy it at first. But now I'm glad I did! The sound of the Maybach engines is simply awesome and because this loc is diesel-hydraulic it produces a lot of traction without wheelspin. It's great for hauling freight!
The only thing I'am not very pleased with is the very loud AWS alarm.

Definately worth adding to the stable. The 52's a bit underpowered, but its unusual look makes it a nice change, and the cab provides EXCELLENT views of the scenery... Like a cab/carriage combo, but better. She's my favorite loco for that!
Add in the Armstrong Powerhouse sounds which create a great in-cab sound ambience, and then consider its four hi-class (free!) BR blue skins (which you can add to the game as Customer Consists), and this is a gem. Highly recommended.

This is one of my favourite locos and is great value. The scenarios are engaging and I had no problems getting gold for both which are rated as medium difficulty. I would recommend getting this for touring any of your routes, as the view from the cabin is expansive and you'll enjoy more of the scenery than if you were driving some other locos. You can still enjoy it without getting the Armstrong Powerhouse Pro soundpack, but I will agree with other reviewers in saying it does very much enhance the experience.

A toad crossed with a sausage!! Ugly!
Brought it on a whim during steam sale
previously not interested in british mainline locomotives, This beautiful machine changed my mind
Drives like a dream, Cab has ultimate visibility - Even has a headlight! (For speedsigns)
Unfortunately cant comment on default stock sounds as I never heard them - on advise of earlier reviews I looked up Armstrong Powerhouse and decided it's something id want.. Highly recomended
shes a beautiful driving machine on the Wearhead to Teesdale network route, really fits with the scenery and era
the looks grow on you.. quickly displaced my 03 shunter as the prefered locomotive for passenger runs
Carriages included are wonderful

This unit is amazingly easy to drive in the diesel range of BR in the large Western Region era. The wide vista cab view allows the driver to take in much of the scenery along with the passenger views and it benefits both heritage and modern routes and services. The limitations on speed are accurate for the time so don't expect to pull a lengthy fast passenger consist of 9 or 12 at top speeds exceeding 85 or such but that does not limit a good run on HST routes either. The "Western's" and the "Warships" were a most successful adaptions to the close of steam era on the BR routes in that area of the former GWR. This class also has the mini beeper horn on the 'B' but a bit of a wheezy throat on the other. No great headlight illumination for me anyway in the many tunnels of the Bath and Bristol routes but the headboard has lighting. Very suitable also in freight modes and heaps of skins available as they had a reasonably longer life than some of the their more modern counterparts. This unit also pulled the "Cornish Rivereria Express" Penzance - London in it's day along with the "Warships" that was a big ride for me as a young lad with my bucket and spade and Ian Allen notebook!

ONLY RECOMENDED WITH AP SOUND PACK
Without the sound pack the physics and sounds just ruin a decent loco and model plus it only comes with the single livery i brought it in sale expecting a decent loco but even from the 50% off price i felt a bit ripped off having to buy a £5 sound pack to just make it usable.
Overall though once combined with the AP sound pack its a pretty mean machine
Only recommed buying it on sale and with the understanding u are gonna need to spend another £5
However the MK1s with it are pretty decent

A decent representation of one of the Western Regions most notable hydraulic locos athough to get the full expierence and the most enjoyment out of it it's highly recommended to acquire the Armstrong Powerhouse PRO Sound Pack as well as Matthew Wilson's reskin pack from DPSimulation for extra varients to get your bang for your buck.
