The introduction of these coaches brought back memories of riding in them between Kings Cross & Crews Hill where I used to work on site.
Yes, they look the real deal.

With 31248 or 31402 at the front (albeit they were never this clean !) it's Kings Cross in the 70s revisited. Absolutely superb.

Stunning.

I received a set of 6 blue suburban along with a suitably matched Brush 2. They look, work and feel an absolute delight. Brilliant removable roofs if passengers are needed. Exchanging the couplings for closer magnetic ones has really enhanced the set. A total joy to see and run. Certainly beats competition coaches in every respect. Roll on the maroon ones.

BR Mk1 57' Non-Gangway Coach - CL - BR Rail Blue: E43003

As always grate detail, grate paint work, free running, grate interior, the bogies very realistic, all the separate fitted detail makes all the difference, a few of the spring dampers were slightly bent out of shape but a tiny bit of glue sorted that out. Had a problem with the lights , they came on but would not turn off , so it's gone back to accuascale and hopefully they can sort that out. All in all very pleased.

Simply the finest coach available.
There is one minor problem. The lighting is far too "white". Incandescent light is almost yellow, especially in "smoking" compartments. But I am willing to try a brown wash over the LEDs. Don't let that take away any glory for Accurascale in bringing these to market. Wonderful.
