Detailed Description

The highlight of the Direct Rail Services' annual open day in 2022 - the first such event since 2019 - was the official unveiling of 37218 in a 'heritage' livery backdating the centre headcode machine to its original DRS paint scheme with rectangular branding that it wore after departing Brush Traction, Loughborough in 2002. This was one of five Class 37/0s to be put through a major refurbishment in the early 2000s, which included extensive reworking to the nose ends with WIPAC light clusters, top headlight and DRS multiple working equipment as well as a full cab upgrade with new control desk and sound proofed partition to bring them up to an almost identical specification to the operator's Class 37/6 locos that featured heavily in our first production run. Although intially outshopped with plated headcode still extant this was removed on its repaint into the 'fade' scheme in 2014 and the Accurascale model will correctly feature the smoothed off nose, toughened windscreens and welded long range fuel tank of the real thing.

Perfection in scale form.

Where to start? The absolute stunning detail within this model is a credit to whoever took the time to draw the model up and to the manufacturer. The model is an absolute beauty when operating, with the added bonus of sound to really bring realism to the layout. She runs an absolute dream and has an immense pulling force. I'm so glad I have many future models pre-ordered with accurascale. I simply cannot wait to see what else is brought to the table by this amazing manufacturer.

Opening the box

Very well detailed model.
On testing its functions and sound it was then a running test at dead slow speed, excellent capability with no faltering even on insulfrog points thanks maybe to it's stay alive or my power feeds to track.
Lighting functions good and engine exhaust sound excellent but wasn't happy with horn sound.
Good weight for traction and although I haven't pulled a long rake imagine it will do its job well as the prototype.
Only one bug bare is sand pipes were a bit bent out of shape but an easy fix.

Class 37 DRS sound fitted.

Once again another fantastic model. Runs smoothly and very quiet. Then the sound functions are perfect. Accurascale are the only go too company for me now. Especially with the back up of a lifetime warranty in place. And the aftersale service is fantastic too. I just cannot fault accurascale. They have very helpful technicians to hand. And will sort your problems out. Give them a go. You will not be disappointed.
