So the question has to be, how will an Accurascale produced Genesis model differ to those models produced in the past, and what shape will any future investment in the tooling take?

The answer lies in research. Just because model features are generic, it does not have to mean that the decoration, or train compositions have to be. Our aim, where possible, will be to provide realistic rakes of rolling stock, in liveries that are as correct in detail as is possible in 4mm scale, and to push the boundaries of what is possible with decoration in that scale. In time, we will add new body, roof and interior types to the tooling suite, to cover a greater sphere of coach builds, and we will be making the most of the scale 28’ 4w and 32’ 6w underframes over the coming months; in due course we may well even add more prototypical stock that utilise these underframe lengths!
