Descripción detallada
La Clase Brush 60 fue el último bastión de la locomotora diésel-eléctrica de diseño y fabricación británica. Desde su concepción hasta su entrega en poco más de 18 meses, la construcción de esta clase de 100 locomotoras fue realmente impresionante.
Diseñadas como locomotoras de carga pesada en lugar de para tráfico mixto, pronto se incorporaron a diversos trenes para los sectores del carbón, el petróleo, los áridos y los metales. Las 100 locomotoras pasaron por las franquicias paralelas antes de pasar a ser propiedad de EWS en 1996. Fiables, eficientes y potentes, se hicieron famosas transportando los trenes más pesados por todo el país.
Después de un punto bajo con muchos almacenados con muchas horas de motor, se está produciendo un resurgimiento con empresas como DCR y GBRF que están utilizando sus flotas de clase 60 para lo que fueron construidas.
La clase 60 de Accurascale es el resultado de muchos años de investigación minuciosa y se construyó utilizando datos de escaneos 3D, estudios topográficos y dibujos originales de Brush. Hemos tenido la gran suerte de poder aprovechar la experiencia y el conocimiento de quienes trabajaron en la puesta en servicio de la clase 60 hasta quienes las revisan actualmente.
Este acceso nos ha permitido desarrollar el conjunto de herramientas más completo para producir la clase 60 definitiva.
Nuestro modelo pesa tan solo 825 g, lo que permite que su potente motor de 5 polos y tracción total transporten incluso los trenes más pesados, como si fuera real. Un complejo sistema de iluminación (que incluye iluminación de la sala de radiadores y del pupitre de control) y un altavoz Accurathrash completan el conjunto.

I was already very impressed with the Accurascale 60 but I bought this one for my friend to make something a little more unusual from. It has been carefully transformed into Grey LoadHaul 60070 which with some transfers, nameplates and a bit of weathering looks excellent from my point of view. Well done Accurascale!
The Accurascale Class 60 in Mainline Grey is superb. Crisp paintwork, excellent detailing, outstanding factory-fitted DCC sound, smooth running and impressive hauling power. It performs exactly as a premium Class 60 should.
By comparison, my experience with Cavalex was extremely disappointing. At a model railway show last year, I asked the Cavalex team about there Class 60 motor issues and other third party fitting sound decoders. They were rude and dismissive, offering no acknowledgement of the failures of there motors and insisting their models were fine. After paying for my Cavalex Class 60s, it took four and a half months to get them repaired so they would run properly. Even now, I do not fully trust them.
Accurascale offers far better value, they are cheaper and have excellent reliability and superb sound straight from the box. Combined with an ESU ECoS system, performance is outstanding. For anyone looking for a Class 60, my recommendation is simple. Buy the Accurascale or Hornby version. Accurascale offer the best Class 60 currently available in OO gauge. Avoid the poor Cavalex running models like the plague.
A spectacular model so well made, high on quality and attention to detail. I love all the different liveries in this first batch offering. My favourite is the loadhaul but I couldn't leave out the mainline grey version. The Brush 60 is another accurascale milestone that's ticked all the boxes yet again. Thx for another brilliant locomotive.
Excellent model not been able to give it a good run as of yet but it has been good on my end to end layout
This stunning loco was donated kindly by Accurascale to our Charity cause cash 4 kids as we raise money with a Christmas raffle and it looks fantastic. I’m sure the winner will love this model the detail is superb, I’m just gutted I can’t win it
Absolutely stunning model!! First class!! Highly recommend buying Accurascale locos!!
Lovely loco but have concerns re packaging:-
1. Massive outer box - I have limited storage space and Accurascle models take up nine times as much space as an old Wrenn loco. The latter were much tougher as they lacked detail, admittedly, but the present packaging system provides insufficient protection. My revent purchase of a GER J69 proved this point as buffers and smokebox door had become detached from the model.
2. I found it very difficult to remove the Class 60 from its rectangluar celluloid tube. The black foam pads underneath the loco would benefit by being 1/32" less deep.
