L'arrivée de 66001 sur le sol britannique à 08h53 le 18 avril 1998 a marqué une nouvelle aube pour le fret ferroviaire britannique, la première de plusieurs centaines de locomotives d'un type qui allait révolutionner le fret ferroviaire à travers le Royaume-Uni (et l'Europe). Il y avait quelques différences subtiles entre les deux premiers et le reste du lot de production qui n'ont jamais été reproduites auparavant sur un modèle. Premièrement, les œillets d'arrimage pour fixer la locomotive au navire étaient dans une position différente des modèles ultérieurs. La calandre du klaxon était également montée presque au ras de la carrosserie. Visuellement, 66001 avait l'air plus frappant en raison de ses grilles rouges qui ont ensuite été changées en noir.
Notre modèle de classe 66 est basé sur la plate-forme primée "accura-standard", avec des bogies à six essieux à traction intégrale, un puissant moteur à double volant et un ensemble électronique leader du marché.
Lighting and DCC Specifics
What have we here, says you. Well it is part 1 of two locomotives from Accurascale scale named the first and last exclusives. The Class 66 is one of the biggest locomotive fleet ever built to run on UK tracks. This one EWS 66001 in their Maroon/Gold livery being the first in the number built. As per usual with the manufacturer it is of exquisite detail, printing and running performance. As a fan of the EWS livery and branded rolling stock I had to buy this beautifully presented locomotive. One can do no wrong in having a couple of this class engine running around a layout.
Brilliantly detailed model and runs extremely well on DCC.
This is the second Class 66 Diesel I have purchased from Accurascale, and as with the first model, the level of detail is superb. The colour scheme is very impressive. There was a slight issue with Royal Mail in that they lost my parcel in transit, but having contacted Accurascale this issue was resolved. Consequently, the delivery time was longer than expected (three and half weeks).
I have several of the Hattons Sheds and I was keen to see the results of the Accurascale magic wand - and I was not not surprised. Excellent detail and a superb model in every way. Will Accurascale be selling any 'upgrade' parts for the old Hattons model? I hope it is possible!
Outstanding rendition of The Shed. Almost as good as my other 66,s by Accurascale
Another absolutely stunning model from accurascale! They are seriously pushing the standards of modelling through the roof! Roll on the class 50s & 60s now! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just AMAZING truly the best class 66 produced by far.
Top quality model.
Still boxed up ,new layout getting set up
Wow, Accurascale, the punked up Hatton's models are superb. The body livery colours of the EWS are bright and bold. Chrisp edges and fine lining are prevalent all around the locomotive. The detailing, well, what can I say, Accurascale really do put a lot of effort into their releases. A look along the sole bar at the fine cable/conduits etx are outstanding, as is the norm from the company. With so much detail to look at, they are an impressive model loco to see. The Class 66s are defaintly not the first and last to come from Accurascale's warehouses in the future.
