Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 16" in lined apple green - unnumbered

Brilliant model!

Just as fantastic as my previous unnumbered blue lined version. They will look great shunting my 16t wagons when they arrive. How about a brake van or two, to go behind the wagons? The Bachmann van is many years old now

Have had to return my loco as the motor ran but the wheels did not turn.Have read of this problem on Facebook.Hope I have more luck when my replacment arrives in about 10 days,so I am told.

A beautiful little model. Althoughnot numbered or otherwise identified, it looks very much like the Pug the operated at the Dailuaine whisky distillery in Speyside. It will fit perfectly into a little cameo I am building around this location (GNoSR)

As above

Lovely!

On arrival I had to re-seat the motor, I understand that this is a common issue and was a know one at that. Taking the Shell off is a challenge, not as easy as it is mentioned in the Instructions. The motor is a 5 pole but very inadequate to provide the torque that is needed for this little one. After breaking in and fiddling with things to get a decent runner out of the Model I can for certainty say if I had know I would have passed on the Barclay and went with another brand and Model altogether. I am aware that this is solely a Hatton's model and nothing other than Name was changed on this run so Accurascale doesn't really have any blame. I hope that Maybe next run will be much improved but until then I will watch reviews and wait to get another if at all.

Perfect little shunter for the money works perfectly everything on point paintwork and lining all fantastic

The model itself is a decent and faithful representation of the real thing though some of the Roding and smaller details are rather flimsily fixed. The body is rather tight on the chassis which makes fitting the decoder trickier than necessary. The instructions are rather basic and lack detail (especially about fitting a DCC decoder) which probably results in damage due to gripping the body in the wrong place. There is no guidance on the orientation of the DCC chip. the socket is not polarised.

What a fabulous model. Great accuracy and very well detailed and finished.
Runs extremely well and quietly with good slow speed control. Looking forward to the crew becoming available to add more authenticity.
I remember these in action in the 'good old days' so many memories have been rekindled.
A fantastic model. Thank you.
