Excellent item very good value for money highly recommend
Been hoping for a Fragonset livery one since the 1st batch of 31s and I didn't have to wait long! This one will have to stick to test train workings though, at least until its ETH fitted partner becomes available ;)
Really captures the unique nature of 418, definitely out of era for me but being from Norwich I couldn't resist given its local roots.
Well worth the wait for this model, striking colour and sound quality is awesome.
Excellent quality wagons, nice runners too. These go well with my layout. Worth every penny
A stunningly beautiful model which runs perfectly. I’m very happy with this class 31.
Perfect, gradually upgrading to dcc, this is my first small tank engine upgraded, works great, easy to install via the smokebox door
Fantastic detail, looks great running behind a 66
Really useful and work well with other brands
Really nice model and runs and looks superb
The loco looks superb in this livery and was well worth the wait!
These fantastic figures from ModelU were the perfect finishing touch for my new British Rail Class 66 66190 in its stunning **DB Cargo UK Martin House charity livery.
The level of detail is outstanding. The poses feel completely natural — relaxed but purposeful — exactly how you’d expect a real crew to look at the helm of a Class 66. The facial definition, clothing folds, and overall realism are exceptional once seated in the cab.
I especially love that the set includes both a male and female driver, which perfectly reflects today’s railway workforce. Fitted into 66190, they instantly brought the locomotive to life and added real presence to an already special model.
For me, these figures didn’t just fill a cab — they completed the story behind the loco, especially given the significance of the Martin House charity scheme. A small addition that makes a huge visual difference.
Absolutely superb and highly recommended for any modern image layout. 🚆
Can’t wait to fix them into D5579 and it was nice that Accurascale made a video on how to install the EM / P4 wheel sets into the model.
Always nice to see how it should be done properly.
Well worth the wait can’t believe the details on the model.
A must have piece of kit for those wanting to configure or customize their ESU fitted loco's.
With Lokprogrammer software upgrades you now have the added benefit of playing around with bass & treble on ESU sound chips which really brings loco's to life.
A great price from Accurascale with fast and efficient delivery.
Highly recommended.
All the products I have purchased i Cannot faultI plus the delivery is very good.
What a glorious little loco! It had to be the GER Ultramarine livered special edition, as I live in East Anglia, where the ghosts of the Great Eastern still stalk the railways.
I've seen the prototype on which it's based at Bressingham on several occasions, and to my amateur eye it's a very faithfully reproduction. The cab detail is outstanding, as is the livery application. Its hauling capability is just awesome, and it has a track presence that belies its diminutive size.
I was so impressed with mine that on delivery, I went straight to the Accurascale
website to buy the other special edition version in BR Blue, but it had sold out. He who hesitates is lost, I guess...
Another Accurascale success.
I had my doubts about this livery, but when I realised the loco had spent the majority of its BR life in South Wales, I just HAD to buy it. As a boy growing up in the Valleys, it seemed like there was a class 37 lurking around every curve in the track during the 1970s.
It's a breathtaking model. The livery just pops, and its performance is superb. Accurascale chose a real crowd pleaser when it selected the 37 for mass production, and I for one an extremely happy it did.
The detail & features are second to none. Bachmann's 37 is an excellent model, but this raises the bar, and for substantially less money (although its success has forced Bachmann to cut its price). It can haul pretty anything and everything I throw at it, and runs as smooth as silk.
Hats off to you, Accurascale
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.
Looks great and runs smooth
