Ah, the famous Flying Scotsman! It's a real piece of history and worthy of looking up, ... first locomotive to surpass 100 mph and such.This model is a very simplified example, sold as a STEM toy, but interesting to the adult modeler too, if you want to get more creative. As a toy, it's not a bad example of these bolt together metal kits ... especially for the price. Yes, some pieces won't fit quite right, the instructions will be vague in parts, and getting the bolts to line up with the nuts is a medium challenge ... so probably not for a child as their first metal kit. But for the more experienced kid or adult, it can be a fulfilling experience.I'm an older adult with previous modeling experience, mostly in wooden ships and planes. These erector-set type models are new to me, simple but fun. They almost beg to be modified with all those extra unbolted holes. So get goofy creative! I went with a "steampunk thing" using metal gears I bought and random brass and copper pieces I could find in junk drawers. The pointy brass in the front is from an old archery sight. There are two cut down shell casings, some plumbing connectors, brass picture hangers, etc. etc. I enjoyed the whole process.So as a simple metal toy or more ... thumbs up!

My son was able to put this together without any help. However, it could be a little Father/Son project.

Ordered this for my grandson who loves models. He was able to put this together and enjoyed it. Nice size truck for his collection of models. He is 8.

It was a gift for my grandson. He was anxious to get started on it.

Bought two of these. The issue was the lack of clear instructions. It came with a sheet and no real “step by step” instructions to follow along. And didn’t label all the parts, so you kinda had to guess which bolt to use where

good quality! Love this! Great Gift!

I purchased this for my son in 2023. He and I loved the idea but it wasn't able to be put together at the very end. He and I both tried to make sure that all the pieces were put together properly but the instructions were confusing at times and when we somewhat had it together (it was loose or the pieces would slide) the bottom of the truck were suppose to have holes drilled to attach it and we had to make 2 of the 4 holes. We ended up throwing it away. There wasn't anyway to fix it. I hope this helps someone.
