  1. From what I remember there is two different chimneys being modelled. It's probably easier from a tool-making point of view to split the chimney there and just change the top half than have it in one piece and end up having two or more smoke box mouldings.
  2. The most recent Newsletter had an image of the boiler/firebox and cab being castings.
  3. This has appeared on Facebook this morning. Have to say it's looking absolutely fantastic! Amazing level of detail under the boiler and in the cab.
  4. They do look rather nice. Not ordered any yet but may do seeing them now they have arrived. Does anyone know what the green stripes on the corners of the vans mean?
  5. The email did mention the green being wrong on the SECR livery Edit, crossed with Frans reply. Also looks like they missed the lighter green between the Red/Yellow lining. Don't think 556 is preservation livery because to my knowledge none of the P's have carried SR livery in pres. Probably should both be green.
  6. Rails have posted an image of the livery samples this morning. I've not ordered any yet but the early livery is really looking great and would break up my mostly Maunsell era livery rolling stock.
  7. When you search Accurascale you get a load more products listed. 37's, 50's, Banana Vans and more.
  8. That is some attention to detailing with the patterning in the polishing of the splasher and valence!
  9. Might be they are locked in by factory capacity and so the can't increase the run rather than don't want to.
  10. Ion't know if that's correct for that livery. The news letter did say there were corrections to make after reviewing these first painted samples so that may be on the list.
  11. Looks like the top valve chest of the cylinders could be a separate part and isn't seated down at the back properly causing the spindle to point towards the solebar.
  12. I may have missed this previously but are the dumb buffers shown in the renders a separate part on LNER No. 986? Cheers
  13. But it's good for people who don't want to or unable to renumber they can have a pair of individual locos straight out of the box.
  14. At least being removable to access the DCC socket it makes it easier to swap out for the correct door.
