Henry is based on an LMS Black 5, which has presumably now been relegated to the Railroad range. It is a tender-driven model.
The model is a good representation of Henry as depicted in Rev. Awdry's books in his post-rebuild state. Despite being an older model, there is still a good level of detail but not too much for small hands. A minor criticism is that, being a tender-driven model, the loco chassis is being pushed and is relatively light, so if driven around the layout at trainset speeds (this is designed for younger enthusiasts, after all!), it may be at more risk of derailing than loco-driven models.
Overall, an excellent model but hard to find with any significant discount, so be prepared to pay close to full RRP.
