359 (7359) - LNER J69 - LNER forrado preto - DCC Sound instalado

Visually excellent. Well done. The model is a superb replica. The extras such as sound and firebox are impressive. Following the run in the loco ran smoothly and it was easy to operate from a slow steady crawl to a good running speed. I have used the engine to pull a rake of genesis coaches, which will be added to when Accurascale release their version of these coaches. The loco pulls a rake of four with ease. The only issue with the engine is that it was reluctant to function out of the box. It required gentle nudge for forward and reverse prior to run in. The loco needs stay alive as it sometimes stutters crossing express points at slow speed.

The packaging is great ensuring the purchase arrived safely. The outer box looks very smart too.

Value for money.

Great little loco that sounds and runs exceptionally well.Glad I purchased it

Beautiful little engine. Bought as a birthday present and is thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you.

A fantastic locomotive.
Sounds great.
Very good pulling power for a small loco.

Lovely model, very fine lining and detailing. Runs very smoothly from box. Very pleased.

This is a beautifully detailed model, lots of separately fitted parts with nice paint. The hand rails are unfortunately plastic with resultant warping of cab hand-rails.
As far as running goes it is nice and quiet. However an issue I have is a pin is missing from a rear wheel to coupling rod which results in jerky running and intermittent sound. I contacted accurascale support via email and received a quick response asking for details and photograph. This was duly sent and to date, more than a week later, have received zero response.
So overall, despite a nicely finished model, I have to mark it down. Disappointed in the support to date, expected at least acknowledgement for the receipt of my follow-up email. Hopefully will be resolved soon.
By the way I have four other Accurascale locos and they are brilliant!

Brilliant model. Probably the best small loco that I have ever seen or owned. The detail and accuracy is absolutely stunning. Love the sound particularly the Westinghouse pump when its sitting at idle. Can't wait til the Accurascale/Modelu crews arrive to fit into both the buckjumpers that I have.
