PTA Hoppers - Aggregate - 'Real' Loads - 5 Pack

These have a very nice weight to them.
Having purchased 2 sets already, I will certainly buy more as and when they become available.

An excellent product and easy to fit.

Just more of the same with an extra order of these aggregate loads for .y wagons. A good fit but some can be a tiny bit tight. The solution is to use a fine file or emery board to remove fine layers to make them fit. Cheaper than the other versions at the moment too.

Fab wagon loads, especially at this price.

Some modellers don't like to make wagon loads or find it difficult. Especially the younger child that may not have that skill yet. Many manufacturers do supply load making kits, and or supply ready made drop in modules of coal, aggregate, crates, barrels etc. Accurascale do however make ready made packs like these for the PTA wagons in their inventory. Based on a resin base and covered in chippings to look like the load one desires for the wagons being freighted through a layout. These packs of gray aggregate were a bargain buy at this time for £2.45, than the usual £16+ per pack of five. So, yeah, I purchased quite a few packs, lol, that I can repaint over into other loads as iron ore, coal, etc. Whether the pricing is a website error or not, it is a worthwhile purchase.

I've never bought anything like this before as I've made my own but these are so easy, you just pop them in and that's it, as easy as that.
One thing I did do on the end wagon with the flashing light, I fitted a magnet to the underside of the load which made it easier to remove to gain access to the battery once it needs replacing.

Bought these after much pondering, but wish I had bought them earlier. They are superb and all subtly different. Very impressive for the price. Highly recommend these.

Not knowing at the time, I purchased PTA wagon loads from a private source. I was very disappointed with what I had bought. These wagons loads have a little cut out in each corner and this person had omitted to take this into account. Then I saw the Accurascale loads, purchased them. I am pleased to say the improved look is outstanding. Would certainly buy again.
