Here is my first OO gauge model train review to come for September 2023. The Steam Engine I will be reviewing today is the Hornby R3063 4-4-0 Class 4P Compound Steam Locomotive in the LMS Maroon livery. Sadly this has to be one of the worst models I have reviewed but at the start of the video. Everything was seemingly great and was going okay.
That was until the performance test when its pathetic performance and excessive wheel slipping showed how weak this locomotive really was. This was an eBay purchase and the seller claimed it was mint in box and been DCC fitted. Fair enough as I have access to both at the time this video was done but somehow the seller forgot to mention that the traction tires were removed by the previous owner.
The locomotive struggled to pull the 7 freight cars that I added and the same train I used when I reviewed the Class E2 last month. This should have been a breeze had the traction tires been left alone as the locomotive is too light to add enough torque for the wheels to grip the rails so it can pull the train effectively. Shame as I was optimistic that this model would breeze the performance test like the previous model trains have. There is not enough weight to compensate the lack of traction tires
Had I bought this model for display purposes, it would be perfect for a display model but not when it is going to be used on a model railway which I had planned for this and why I bought it in the first place. I have since sent this sorry looking model train back for a refund and I will review something else in its place. I am not angry about the ordeal but I am very disappointed by the very poor performance on this model train.
Overall Rating: 4/10.
