Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 14" 2201 'Victory' in plain maroon with wasp stripes

lovley loco shame it took over 2 weeks to get sent out to me,, when i asked where it was ,, as i have had parcils stollen of my door step,, they took a very high handed atitude .... and canciled all my other orders lol

a lovely little engine, surprisingly weighty with plenty of die-cast metal and nicely detailed

The Andrew Barclay 0-4-0st 14" 2201 "victory" in plain maroon with wasp stripes is a brilliant loco. An excellent runner and beautiful detail all round. Very weighty and with an amazing paint finish. Worth the price

Having recently received this well produced model of Andrew Barclay 2201 Victory I have compared it to the real life loco that the caerphilly railway society restored many years ago at the sight of their former base before forced out by vandalism & scrap metal Thieves who cut out a section of rail from the running line.
Back to the model it well put together and looks really as it was in industrial service.
I can't give any comments on it running abilities as I have purchased it for display purposes only and having done a small amount of work on her at caerphilly.
The price is well worth paying for a well presented model.

Missed out on the Hattons variants, so i was excited to pick up a new one from Accurascale!. Got her to America safely, and she was strong enough for two! Stunner and a runner!

Cracking model

excellent runner, looks great

A nice model, ran great straight from the box. The perfect addition to my layout.

Ordered two of the Accurascale Barclays taken on by Accurascale from the former Hatton's programme. I am delighted with both. 'Victory' is small loco packed with fine detail, with an excellent application of the livery, decals and wasp stripes. This is a smooth runner and a powerful little loco, easily capable of hauling prototypical loads - and more. Well done Accurascale!

I was literally stunned by the Barclay when I opened the box. It looks amazing. I already own an original Hattons model, but the quality of painting on this version (Victory) is off the dial. Everything was fine until I put it under power...
Forewarned by comments on line, I was able to remove the body and persuade the worm to mesh with the gears. A very simple job, but not one for the non-technically minded amongst us. It wasn't a deal breaker, but it did take the edge off an otherwise decent experience..
