68619 - Hwyr BR J69 - Glas tywyll wedi'i leinio (Anifail anwes Sied Stryd Lerpwl)

Another banger from accurascale

Stunning model, Runs beautifully. Now fitted with a sound decoder and speaker really brings the model to life!

Such a fun little loco. Looks great and runs even better even though thwyre not cheap they are very much worth the money. They are very well detailed and on top of that they are not prone to falling apart has been handles by a very excited 8 year old and has survived without taking damage.

This model is the best I have ever seen regarding detail and running capabilities.
I run an analogue layout and this model runs beautifully.
Well done to the Accurascale team.

Absolutely brilliant, nothing else to say!

Beautiful little engine, runs as good as it looks. Couldn't have asked for a better loco to add to my fleet

Has a motion fault, returned and replacement had the same.
Being looked into !

Excellent model. Finely detailed. Runs superbly. Very happy with mine. Very tempting to buy another one.

Another model knocked out the park by Accurascale. A really nice put togther model with a lovely paint finish. Even on DC it is a lovely, smooth and reliable runner. A+++

Well worth the long wait for the J68. My Liverpool St. pilot 68619 is a little beauty to look at but It is not the best runner which is a shame. I had to send the first one back because of bad running and the replacement is better, but still stutters. The problems seem to lie with the wheels which are coated in blackening which no matter how much I have cleaned them still cause hesitant running. Another thing is the access to the pick ups and chassis for cleaning which suffers from poor design. the pick ups are the wrong way up which makes them hard to clean the part that contacts the wheels without dismantling the brake gear and the brake gear also makes wheel cleaning very difficult. A lovely model for the glass case but suffers from too many bits and pieces on the chassis which may cause difficulties for long term future use.
10 out of 10 for finish, construction and it really looks like the prototype in just about every way. 7 out of 10 for running and too much detail in places where it cannot be seen unless you are holding it upside down. The access to the dcc decoder is excellent. Looking forward to another Great Eastern loco. Class E4 or F5 would be lovely but don't be long as I was 80 this year!!
