An Impulse buy!

The purple Deltic was not on my ‘needed’ list. But having seen one on someone else’s layout from the first run of this particular loco I decided to add it to my collection. It looks great on display and the Deltic suits the purple livery, which I have to say Accurascale have applied flawlessly. It’s not currently sound fitted, like the other Deltics I’ve bought. But really looks the part!

Simply Exquisite

I missed out on the previous run of 9016 ''Gordon Highlander'', so when I saw that there was a re run I had it pre ordered and there are no regrets whatsoever. This is simply an amazing model that is beautiful in every way made by a manufacturer that continues to keep on raising the bar. I never saw 9016 running in this livery, but whilst it may be a marmite livery I really like it, In like these different liveries like this as it adds variety. I shall use this to haul railtours (though I'll be taking creative liberties of course) on my layout. Well done to Accurascale.

Deltic

What can I say? A superb loco, working straight out of the box and very well crafted. £169.99 for this? Yes, anytime and setting the standard other manufacturers ought to follow. Long may it last.

Stunning Model

I missed out on the first run of this model so made sure I didn't this time. The improvements made to chains etc have made this model even better than the previous batch, absolutely stunning
