Classe 30 - D5579 Ocre Dourado
Esgotado
Descrição Detalhada
Descrição Detalhada
Embora as Brush Type 2 provavelmente usassem uma das interpretações mais atraentes do esquema de pintura verde da BR, uma preocupação crescente dentro da British Railways era melhorar a visibilidade de sua locomotiva a diesel, que não se destacava aos trabalhadores da linha férrea da mesma forma que as locomotivas a vapor que estavam rapidamente substituindo. Além dos testes com luzes piscantes em várias classes, em janeiro de 1960, a Falcon Works superou duas "Classe 30" em pinturas experimentais, a D5578 em azul francês e a D5579 em ocre dourado, também descrita como ouro bronze. Curiosamente, apenas esta última manteve as listras branco-sujo e se saiu melhor por isso.
Embora ambos tenham sido inicialmente alocados para 30A Stratford e depois para 31B March a partir de novembro de 1960, eles se separaram pouco menos de cinco anos depois, quando o D5579 se juntou ao 41B Tinsley, tendo ganhado um pequeno painel amarelo — a resposta da BR aos problemas de visibilidade — em 1963. Enquanto o D5578 foi pintado na cor verde padrão em setembro de 1964, seu equivalente sobreviveu até janeiro de 1966, antes de ser admitido em Doncaster para sua própria reforma. Foi renumerado como 31161 e salvo da retirada de circulação como uma adição tardia ao programa da Classe 31/4, tornando-se 31400 em março de 1988, após a condenação do 31401 após um acidente no início do ano, notavelmente trocando sua pintura da Railfreight por um retorno ao azul BR. Foi armazenado pouco mais de três anos depois e desmontado na Booth's of Rotherham em agosto de 1993.

Superb model
Another fantastic model bought for a friend who missed out on pre order sales.
Up to the very high standards set by the manufacturer and will continue to purchase future models made.
Another beautifully detailed model from Accurascale, looks fantastic in this livery and as does the box art.
This looked a stunner in the Accurascale catalogue and it looked even better once it was out of is attractive packaging and on my layout. It oozes with the quality we have come to expect as standard from Accurascale. Lovely paint finish, superb detailing including the cab notice behind the drivers seat. Runs well at all speeds, once run in I had it pulling a rake of limited edition brewery vent wagons, running smoothly round second and third radius curves. The stunning locomotive is already a favourite of mine. Well done to all involved in creating this masterpiece.
Its such an amazing loco and I'm glad I chose it as I've had no running problems, no QC troubles and I absolutely adore the box artwork.
Very nice loco to add the fleet very smooth slow and fast looks amazing great box
Thanks
I absolutely love it, I was aware of this colour scheme and had a suspicion it was on the cards when I ordered my green version from run one. It runs beautifully and is wonderfully detailed, with an excellent application of the livery. Highly recommended.
Total classic...great livery...another cracking Accurascale Exclusive.
Simply stunning, excellent detail and livery !
The loco looks superb in this livery and was well worth the wait!
The locomotive is gorgeous. It works like a Swiss watch and looks magnificent in this rare unique livery. It runs as well as we have come to expect from this fine oraganisation and I'm looking forward to the next new bunch of models into Accurascale's range... the classes 81, 82, 83, 84 and 85.
What I found distressing was the incessant 'in stock', 'out of stock', 'in stock', 'out of stock' process which became quite annoying and stressful. Because Australia is 200 years behind the rest of the world we only receive our emails advising stock is available around 0300 in the morning and by the time we wake up the gannets have already picked the bones clean. There must be a way of reserving one with a simple, refundable deposit for those in the Dominions.
Thanks team.
Excellent model, good in all respects, wonderful addition to the fleet
Smooth, quiet power!! So far only tested on a rolling road, you easily get a sense of what this loco is capable of. Then there's the class-specific nuances and high level of detail...what a model (as usual!)...
Top class model! Great runner and looks the part.
What an outstanding model with beautiful detail and colour scheme! Going to have to upgrade with sound ! Lessen learned.
The loco is lovely. Class 31's aren't blessed with good looks, but it's a beautiful model!
Great loco with detail and colour
Great class 31 paint detail is superb quality item well priced
What a fantastic locomotive, and the livery is great, the locomotive runs silently as always and runs smooth, everything is of the usual standard which is expected.
Cracking Loco, cant wait to run it .!
Excellent model as always great detail and finish. Only small gripe is the instructions for fitting the buffer detail. Apart from that well done on another great model
A grest addition to my Class 31 fleet. Have long wanted the ochre coloured 31 and here it is. Excellent model with beautiful detail
Another lovely looking loco from Accurascale. My only problem is my budget can't keep up with the releases.
This is a delightful model, accurate and detailed to Accurascale's usual high standard but the livery is another step up, the application is just sublime. A lovely thing to behold.
A Triang class 30/31 was the very first loco I was given by my parents as part of a Freightmaster train set. My dad and I used it as the basis to build a substantial model railway.
Decades later I've come back to the hobby, and acquiring this state-of-the-art version of the class was a must for me, especially in this superb Golden Ocre livery. These were ubiquitous in the BR Eastern Region, where I now live, and I have photos of them working on the long closed Waveney Valley Line that passed through the town.
The model is fabulous. Accurately detailed both inside and out, with an excellent sound/lighting suite, even when using a non-ESU chip. The authentic A1A power set up is a plus point, IMO.
Buying such things is not just about how the look, or how they work - both of which are faultless on this model - but also about how they make you FEEL, and this brown beauty delivers on that score in spades.
Just received this superb model. The detail and appearance is second to none and the running is incredibly smooth and silent yet another beautiful model to my collection.
Absolute stunner. Im more into continental and american these days but this is such a unique looking livery it was definitely worth buying.
