Der 37140 des March-Depots war einer der ersten Klasse 37, der Mitte 1986 mit einem gut sichtbaren Scheinwerfer ausgestattet wurde. Später im selben Jahr erhielt es auch einen orangefarbenen Cantrail-Streifen, bevor es im Mai 1987 nach Stratford zurückkehrte. Obwohl es den ostanglischen Infrastrukturaufgaben zugeteilt war, war es kein Unbekannter für Fracht- oder Passagierarbeiten, die regelmäßig auf den im Sommer datierten Strecken von Norwich-Gt Yarmouth zu sehen waren Dienste aus London, den Midlands und dem Nordosten. Das Accurascale-Modell repliziert den Zustand der Lokomotive aus den späten 1980er und frühen 1990er Jahren mit Kopfteilclips und Standardlampenbügeln und ist mit dem Maskottchen-Logo „Cockney Sparrow“ und einem gelben DCE-Blitz unter den Führerhausfenstern des zweiten Mannes verziert. 37140 war ein später Überlebender in BR-Blau, zusammen mit den in East London ansässigen Kollegen 37216 und 37219, die schließlich im Oktober 1991 ihr „Unternehmensimage“ gegen das „Niederländisch“ des Bauingenieurs tauschten.

Class 37

Early days but the loco ran beautifully straight out of the box, Quality is superb and I have since pre ordered the Class 55 Deltic with sound, based on my experience with the awesome service and speedy delivery of the loco.
Many thanks Team Accurascale and take a bow.

Sound installed 37140

Loco arrived well packed but with two buffers loose in the packaging. These were easily re-fixed.
The overall look and feeling of quality of the loco is excellent and the colour would seem pretty close to how I remember the locos as running.
While running the loco on the rolling road, it continually cut out, but following lowering the sound via the CVs, this now appears to be resolved.
I’m disappointed with the overall sound file as when the loco is powered down to a slower speed, it just runs on a barely audible tick over.
I know Accurascale can do better with the sound as I have just received my class 31 which gets 5 stars all day long. Hope my two forthcoming class 50’s sound as good!

Quality as always

What can I say, an issue on ordering left me fearing that I missed out on this one, but no, as always customer service was first rate and the issue sorted.
Another lovely model which takes me back to my spotting days in the 80s. Ran in perfectly and the sound is top notch.

37140 - Another winner.

Yet another excellent model (my third 37) that runs with no issues whatsoever. Sounds spot on, and the price cannot be beaten for the quality.

Brilliant bit of banger blue!

Another excellent model from Accurascale - the handsome lines of the '37' is caught very nicely and looks great in a coat of blue, all details are affixed securely, the model is a great runner, and the sound is just right. Printing is sharp and well defined, including the cheeky Stratford sparrow - a great finishing touch!

It's accuascale again....

Absolutely terrible. In fact so terrible I think I should get freebies! (Worth a shot).
What can I say. It's an accurascale model. Absolutely fantastic. Sounds awesome, looks excellent on my Accurascale Mk2s.
P.s. can I have freebies? And where is that 141 pacer I keep asking for!
