Model Trains at Dad's (Part 01)

This video features the model railway my dad built for me 35 years ago!
That's 1976.
The railway has been in store since about 1990 and recently we decided to try and get it back in use.
It did need a re-wire and a clean up but after some minor tinkering everything seems to work.
There is a lot of work to do on the buildings and other features but we can now run trains :) here you see my Heljan CO-BO, Bachmann 2EPB and our Hornby 'Brighton' Terriers at play. (yes we each own one) Track used is Peco set track that we purchased in person at Peco as we were on holiday, points were upgraded in the 80's.

Is the 2EPB bachmann worth the money? Could you tell me some of the nice things about it?
