Considering this locomotive in apple-green, but I have been put-off by some of the pictures on the Rails site, crooked piping, poor application of black and white lining... Those who have actually purchased this locomotive, could you please comment on the overall quality in performance and finish. In which factory has this item been produced? Thanks in advance.

Same issue with mine, R2889 BR 4-4-0 Class T9 30119 Limited Edition, the motor retainer backplate x9945 has disintegrated . I have contacted Hornby, but I would appreciate if you can post a picture of the brass one you fabricated, I may do the same . Thanks in advance.
