HBA - Loadhaul - Pack 1

Such a step up from the 'high detail' Hornby versions. Proportionally they look great and have real presence. The triple packs are such a good idea too enabling you to build realistic rakes with ease.

I love all the minor detail differences with operator logos etc. There's nothing worse than getting a wagon pack where the numbers are sequential, so it's good that these are 'random'.

Packaging, as we've come to expect from Accurascale, is sturdy and has a quality feel.

Only criticism is that they're way too clean ;)

At £25 each, they offer amazing value compared to what other companies are charging for ancient tooling!

Can't wait for the next batch...

The detail on these fabulous wagons is absolutely top drawer. Great value for money and so easy to build a decent size rake at an affordable price

As one would expect yet another superb model from Accurascale - the iconic MGR which I used to see in rakes of 21 or indeed 42 wagons. The finish and detail is a vast improvement over my ageing Hornby variants - the facilitation of different running numbers adds to the overall effect. Well done to all at Accurascale andook forward to the next run.

I had originally purchased the HBAs in Loadhaul and railfreight frame varieties and was going to wait to they came out in Railfreight coal yellow frames but i was so impressed with the quality and detail of these hoppers that i bought 2 more packs of the Loadhaul liveried variants. This means i will be making a 3rd purchase as and when the Railfreight coal liveried ones appear.
Furthermore I purchased the 2nd order on black Friday making the wagons less than £18 each. That is amazing value for such a detailed wagon.

Damn you - I’m
Spending far too much money on these!

Continues the very high standard of production and detail on this wagon which has the extender coal dust covers around the hopper to reduce dust and spillage when on the move

These wagons are amazing in terms of detail the only thing missing is the working doors, apart from that it’s all there not a single rivet is missing, **** link instanter couplings, sprung buffers, the wheels are finely detailed as the chassis with the safety and door release mechanism, very nice crisp body. All is correct size nothing too big or too small. Price and I’m more than happy with that, for me personally they are priceless because I grew up with these and being from a mining background. I wanted a precision model to represent my heritage. These will form my prestigious collection of coal hoppers which these are legendary

Really impressive level of detail, great value and really quick delivery too.

Wow these wagons look and run fantastic, just wish i had a layout capable of running full length trains 30+ wagons.
I am hoping there will be HBA hoppers with the yellow framing of trainload coal coming soon.

I'm really pleased with these HBA hoppers, they arrived in perfect condition, all detailing parts intact and are beautiful to look at. The printing is razor sharp, colours all superbly applied and on top of the highly detailed base model which is free running, smooth and more accurate than predecessors. It will almost be a shame to cover over this beautiful silver finish with weathering!
