Wedi'i gwblhau bron i chwe blynedd ar ôl i D6700 adael Vulcan Foundary, D6600 oedd y cyntaf o naw English Electric Math 3 i gael eu rhifo allan o ddilyniant wrth i'r fflyd fynd yn fwy na'r gyfres a ddyrannwyd iddi a chodi yn erbyn locomotifau D7000 'Hymek' Rhanbarthau'r Gorllewin. Anfonwyd i 86A Treganna Caerdydd ym mis Awst 1965 ac yna i Glandŵr Abertawe ym 1971, gan ennill y rhif 37300 yn ddiweddarach, a threuliodd 20 mlynedd gyntaf ei oes yn bennaf ar nwyddau cludo nwyddau yn Ne Cymru a’r cyffiniau cyn symud i’r Alban yn y pen draw ar ddechrau 1985. Prin yr oedd wedi ymgartrefu yng ngogledd y ffin pan dderbyniodd alwad i Crewe Works ym mis Hydref i'w hadnewyddu fel un o'r dosbarth 37/4s yng Nghymru, 37429. Mae D6600 yn gwisgo ei lawnt BR gwreiddiol gyda phanel rhybuddion melyn bach a nodweddion ei gyflwr trwyn fel y mae heb unrhyw blât cryfhau rhychiog a heyrn lamp arddull WR yn unig.

A Superb Class 37

This my second Class 37 and it runs superbly.
One minor issue is the lighting of the centre headcode. It's not very bright.

Just what the doctor ordered!

Unfortunately the first shipment was found to be damaged on opening the box and the loco had some strange running qualities! Following replacement, the Second loco I received was, as we have come to expect and appreciate from Accurascale a great model to an exceptional high standard of detail and great sound.

Best diesel model I own!

Simply the best diesel model in my collection. The shape and detail are excellent, the chains to the bogies in particular. The sound is impressive, loud, bassy and full of features, even down to the AWS self test when you change directions. My only nit pick is no wheelslip function on the sound set, but I assume that is simply because the loco didn't slip when they were recording. Superb overall.

D6600

Another stunning loco from Accurascale, only issue for me was the headcode boxes not fully lighting, cured this by making two new plastic spacers with the holes in the right places, easy fix and now looks brilliant

A superb model.

An excellent design with quality assembly, decoration, and DCC sound- I’m not always a fan of sound but this model calls for it. Great performance with slow speed control. And it’s great value. The packaging is also quality.

D6600 - original livery as delivered when new

Another excellent model from Accurascale. What a pleasure it is to get a loco out of the box that you know is going to work exactly as the spec says. Excellent paint finish and attention to detail.
