Climb on board the Thames Clyde Express, Bachmann trainset review

So fresh off the rails from my Hornby review, I trawled around ebay to see if I could find any train sets of similar quality, but lower cost, and were my prayers answered?

 Climb aboard for the review, oh, and, tickets please?

I had a feeling Shad of Shadiversity would get a few, interesting, comments in his comment section after making his nunchucks video, there's even been some response which I will link to below my own video, which you can click on to view right below this line of wonderfully written text. My own background in Marital Arts is that I am a former second dan in Tang Soo Do, a Korean martial art noted more for it's use of kicks, kicks of all heights, spins, jumps and yes flying kicks. We did also practise with various weapons including the nunchuck, I didn't cover any of this in the video because that would be too much of a deviation from the point of the discussion.
