Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 16" in lined dark blue - unnumbered

The execution and detail of this model is fantastic. So good that I have ordered another, this time, a green one.

Loco arrived very well packaged but on opening the box and trying the loco was found not to be working. Disappointed as this was the first Accurascale purchase. Returned to manufacturer using the returns scheme which went smoothly and have now received a replacement which is absolutely fine. Have one of these models from the previous manufacturer and it is just as good.

Back when Hattons first released their P class and Andrew Barclays, I was excited for fantastic models for a fantastic price. I had missed the run of the Andrew Barclays and was so excited when the tooling was picked up by Accurascale! I had to have one. Again, a quality piece for a great price. Looks great aesthetically and runs like a dream. I have the blue unlettered/unnumbered version and plan on adding letters and weathering at some point. Very happy with my purchase! - Tony’s NWR

Lovely little thing, runs like a dream

I have to say the my loco is incredibly good, the details, the paint job and it runs very smoothly. I have been making models for sixty years, but I don’t make them any more because I can't hope to better the new RTR offerings of companies like Accurascale. In my review there was a but, and it was a shame because I couldn't say it was 100%. For some reason the rear of the cab had been pushed forward, bent between the rear cab panel and the roof supports. I've straightened it as for as I dare, but there's still a bow. Pity.

Non runner on arrival, emailed Accurascale and they got back to me very quickly, with an explanation and a detailed, easy to follow method to solve the issue.

Beyond that, the model is fully intact, and beautifully decorated. Now the recommended method has been implemented, it runs nicely as well.

Yet another great model. Runs well and looks great. Full of details.

Bought 2 Barclays . One Worked The Other Sat there with its motor spinning . Thats 50% failure . Surely this problem must have been noticed before they got to the customers .If not why not.

I've heard nothing but praise for this diminutive little tank engine, and now that I have one I completely get it. Excellently detailed and a flawless runner on my less than ideal trackwork. Great to see this model wasn't lost when Hattons shut down.

The Barclay is a very very nice model. The detail is great and the running quality is perfect, especially for the price value. However, this specific run of this model has been very rough with all the quality control issues such as the motor clips failing, poorly machined wheels, details not being glued in/secured properly, and the packaging crushing in the rear cab wall.
These issues contributed to my model having to be sent back for repairs or replacement. I was super excited for the release so this was pretty crushing. I hope you guys are able to fix these problems coming forward!
