So glad I was able to pick one of these models up when the remaining stock was put up for sale, first class model and ordered one from batch 2.
A beautiful locomotive in a very attractive livery, runs perfectly. Only let down by the known issue of the orange jumper cable boxes at either end of the locomotive. One of mine had already come loose on transit, the other came away as soon as the ice box was opened!
These do exactly what they should do, you do need to be careful with the cables underneath the speaker and also it’s quite easy to bend the legs when trying to clip them into the PCB so do take care when fitting.
Another stunning model from Accurascale! I initially got a model of 50021 and that in itself is excellent model, however when more stocks of 50007 came online i just had to get 1!! I ‘ wasnt to be disappointed. The loco is just fantastic. Accurascale have done themselves proud again!! Absolutely amazing!
The Accurascale class 50 sound fitted is by far the greatest sounding loco of all time, I played video of mine whilst riding on a real class 50. They were equally great. Ps triple headed are even better
A fantastic addition to any layout. The level of detail is unparalleled along with great runningcharacteristics. I will be looking to aquire further examples.
Absolutely stunning model.
Accurascale, as always, are a cut above the rest when it comes to their models.
The details are excellent, and I cannot wait to fit the pipes and ploughs (even if they're anything like the 37, and are a bit of a pain) just to complete the look.
The mechanism makes this model an absolute beast, hauling anything I have at it over even my now-warped baseboards.
Too my eyes, the multiple working cables, being moulded in colours rather than painted, don't look too bad to me. They could have been a lot worse. Still, the fact that Accurascale have provided alternatives is outstanding.
Really excellent model, cannot wait for their next one.
Besides the known unpainted cab end detailing which Accurascale are issuing replacements. This is one fine looking model of the Class 50 in GWR lined green livery. Exquisitely detailed so be careful in handling, I've had a set of steps from one corner loose in the box from shipping. Buy or die for one of these, as they are the best EE Type 4 locomotives I've seen by any manufacturer.
So glad for the oppurtunity to further break my bank with the purchase of this great model.The sound is spot on, detail excellent, and running is smooth.
I can't find the words to say about this model that arrived from Accurascale today. Other than it is an absolute gem of the Holden tank J67/J69 Class. My model of the exclusive lined Dark Blue BR 68619 Liverpool Street Pilot is beautiful from all angles. Just look at the photos attached and make up your own mind at them. The also has a removable roof that shows of an immaculately detailed interior. To fit a decoder in one simply removes the smoke box door (held by magnets) and do the replacement. The package even includes a pair of tweezers to do the job. The detailing baggie has various named place boards to add to the loco smoke box door and at the back end of the coal bunker, a lovely touch.
Another fantastic wagon package arrived from Accurascale. This pack is of the 21t HTO/HTV Hopper variant of the ZDV Departmental wagons in bauxite livery. From opening the usual Accurascale superbly printed boxes to reading the documentation is the perfectly secured models. They are a dream set of wagons which are exquisitely detailed and have many fine parts on the models. A beautiful job has been made to capture the real thing in miniature. A rake of these behind any loco would look awesome. Congratulations Accurascale for making another amazing piece of rolling stock.

Not too bad but I wasn't expecting visible circuit boards and worm gears through the windows. The buffer beam step fitting probably needs re-thinking too. When they fall off the slots in the top of the buffer beam makes getting them at a right-angle a little tricky.
