84 - GER J67 - GER Ultramarine - Feistithe le Fuaim DCC

Sounds great, looks great, packaged well and lovely presentation.
One of the best 0-6-0 locomotives if have seen running on my layout.

Arrived quickly , sounds great.

This arrived recently in the usual good packaging from Accurascale, and it looks very nice. I say looks very nice, as I should have been moving house about now and all my railway gear is packed away in storage. I can’t test it, or run it - all I can do is enjoy the way it looks. The house chain collapsed, and I now have to start buying and selling all over again. I have another of these models and that runs and behaves very nicely, so I am hoping this will be just as good when I eventually get to test it.Lovely looking model.

Great little model.

Stunning little model especially in its rich GER blue.

Superb model and brilliant service.

Superb loco, the design really captures the loco of this loco and the ultramarine blue livery is exquisite. What I love is the detachable roof so you can see the beautiful cab interior. The model runs superbly and the sound is crisp.

There's been debate over what "real" Great Eastern Blue actually looked like, and I don't think that debate is going to stop even now. This model is in a much brighter blue than the BR liveried Liverpool St Pilot, and the Preserved J69 from Locomotion. But my feeling from my own research, and discussion with Phoenix Precision is this is as close as is possible without someone finally finding something 100% conclusive. Which is fine, as it is a lovely colour. Not my era, although I have a Rule 1 scenario of GER Heritage trains - just need some prototypical coaches - hint hint! The J67/68/69 is an absolute minefield of different combinations from number of spokes on the wheels, reverser type, chimney type, safety valves, roof material and shape, brake types and so on - it was a brave decision to go for it by Accurascale but I am so glad they did. Roll on the next batch!

Model of the year!

Great loco and amazing livery...Sent promptly and amazingly packed
