Excellent models the detail and finish are suberb, I hope you produce coal loads for these soon.
I’d firstly like to say, I’m very happy with my purchase unfortunately, was slightly dissatisfied with another Accurascale 57XX which, had to be taken apart to adjust the wiper pick-up blades; However this particular 57XX is a fantastic model, (all the wiper pickups are touching)!
Very much worth the wait. The colouration is realistic, not “new” if hand painted. Fits well and adds further realism. Another triumph.
Another amazing model from Accurascale, looks fantastic and runs like a dream. Can't recommend highly enough A++++
Nicely detailed figures, good colour density - a noticeable improvement on earlier efforts. 👍🏻
Firstly when this loco arrived and I unpacked it the etched roof grill (in the foreground of photo) was loose in the box. Though a few droplets of neat PVA or super glue (what adhesive does the factory use?) will fix it back in place. Otherwise Accurascale have pulled out a show stopping Class 66. The livery is spot on, fine and crisp edges. The detailing is fabulous with chassis lined cabling, fine handrails, steps, side grills, and other equipment. The cab interiors are well depicted as per Accurascales normal specs with their loco stock. The cab ends are wonderful with the full fitted buffer beams included in the accessories baggie. The light clusters are nice with the body lifting eyes inbetween, fine wipers, and the etched grill over the top air horns looks even finer. I've not test run it yet, not until I get to fitted the loose roof grill and the #1 Cab end full spec buffer on. Verdict: Another winner for Accurascale to kick the new year of with, just a shame the grill came off. Plus, my saved up points helped to pay a ¼ of the price for me.
The figures come well packaged and look really good at a normal viewing distance. But if you want to do super close up photos the figures have excellent detail on facial features and clothes just requires the addition of some embellishments with paint and brush.

Well boxed and very smart figures look perfect when you are looking at normal viewing distance from loco.
I had already bought the earlier NER period P7 hoppers and am very pleased with them.
I decided to buy this pack so that I could run the hoppers with a late NER formation or an early LNER formation.
