Smashing set of wagons !

These arrived in the customary Accurascale sturdy packaging, and are easily;y as detailed as any OO wagons I have seen before. Just can't fault them at all. Some may say over-detailed, but I would rather than than over-simplified any day. Excellent wagons.

Very nice

A lovely set of three wagons, useful for building a longer rake. Each wagon is decorated differently and they look good together whilst each looking unique like the real thing.

Price Cannot fault it.

Simple review for a simple wagon that’s far from simple itself, amazing level of detail and the finish is second to none!!

Amazing detail, quality and value

Such a step up from the 'high detail' Hornby versions. Proportionally they look great and have real presence. The triple packs are such a good idea too enabling you to build realistic rakes with ease.

I love all the minor detail differences with operator logos etc. There's nothing worse than getting a wagon pack where the numbers are sequential, so it's good that these are 'random'.

Packaging, as we've come to expect from Accurascale, is sturdy and has a quality feel.

Only criticism is that they're way too clean ;)

At £25 each, they offer amazing value compared to what other companies are charging for ancient tooling!

Can't wait for the next batch...

Another great wagon

The detail on these fabulous wagons is absolutely top drawer. Great value for money and so easy to build a decent size rake at an affordable price

FOND MEMORIES OF MERRY-GO-ROUND COAL WAVONS

As one would expect yet another superb model from Accurascale - the iconic MGR which I used to see in rakes of 21 or indeed 42 wagons. The finish and detail is a vast improvement over my ageing Hornby variants - the facilitation of different running numbers adds to the overall effect. Well done to all at Accurascale andook forward to the next run.

2nd purchase of MGR hoppers

I had originally purchased the HBAs in Loadhaul and railfreight frame varieties and was going to wait to they came out in Railfreight coal yellow frames but i was so impressed with the quality and detail of these hoppers that i bought 2 more packs of the Loadhaul liveried variants. This means i will be making a 3rd purchase as and when the Railfreight coal liveried ones appear.
Furthermore I purchased the 2nd order on black Friday making the wagons less than £18 each. That is amazing value for such a detailed wagon.
