Delightful Deltic !

What a stunning model this is, I am so glad I decided to buy one! Amazing levelnof detail and the sound project fitted just brings it to life even more !

Type 55 Deltic in Portabrook Livery

Presentation box, packing and paperwork all excellent.
When the model is in motion really looks the part, the fitted sound is adequate with plenty of options. Stay alive would have bee nice to have. Disappointingly the loco does not navigate one of the curves on my layout which my Bachman Type 55 does.
The suggested delivery period was massively optimistic, second quarter to end of the forth quarter, Accurascale are not alone in this respect.

Hi Colin
All models have a stay alive built in. Ensure your track voltage is at least 14v for it to work. The model will handle radius 2 so that tricky curve sounds tighter or uneven. Worth checking the track! Hope you enjoy your model and happy christmas.

WOW!!!

The sound is 10/10.
The running of the loco 10/10.
The aesthetics is 10/10.
The packaging and presentation is 10/10.
The colour is 10/10.
So overall I rate this as 2/10 😂

Seriously, another amazing model from
Accurascale. Top quality!

Well worth it

Decided last minute to order a Deltic and although I have never seen one in the flesh, I always liked this variation. On arrival it didn’t disappoint and I’m glad I decided to purchase it. I’ve got a few Accurascale sound locos but the sound in this Deltic was superb. Another brilliant model by Accursacale.

As good as I expected.. thanks Accurascale

Having missed the purple one in the first release, I was keenly awaiting my Porterbrook. Needless to say it didn't disappoint. Once again, a top model in all respects. Thanks guys!

Deltic Second Run 9016 Porterbrook Exclusive

I had the first run version which was good, but delighted to see the second run is so much improved, chains now separate fitting if required, makes body removal to fit crew much easier, Nothing loose, nothing fell off and the sound is fantastic. Delighted with the newer version of this re-run model

Class 55 Porter brook Purple 9016

A great looking locomotive.
Construction is to Accurascale exacting standards, which we all now expect.
Sound quality is extremely realistic.
The locomotive functions without any issues and has been very reliable.
