...the new ACE TRAINS Great Western "City Class" has finally been released!

I got the earlier paint scheme with the red chassis (frame) and the GWR scroll on the tender.

The loco comes with 4 name and number plates, so you can pick one of the 4 names to put on your locomotive.

Looks neat running with the external (outside frame) drive rods. Drive system was designed by ETS and is smooth and quiet (3 rail DC by the way).

Posted in this forum, because ACE classifies these trains as "coarse scale tinplate"

Tinplate haiku poetry:

Great-looking model!

Stupidly, I check the price.

Back to the tin-snips.
