1/76.2 of 126 tons probably,no messing with these guys.

Good sales drive,encourage the other halfs to bin the lot,i thought it was an empty box dear........:)

Its not the Shinkansen though......:)

Theres a chap at Notre Dame likes it......

Theres a great DVD showing the build of the EWS fleet if you like the 66, good watch if you like the engineering of stuff..........https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/192910515398?itmmeta=01HV3YHQS57PAT69PFG9G03K31&hash=item2cea5cdcc6:g:jqMAAOSw5dNWmRBF&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwC9qlZOmYmYGq1GaQqB7qC9cdDL7pGIc5PC2TiYNCQxZGF8NbR7D460z%2FhJh7aVBM6iFAyqKqipUJskf4iMEI7jbLubQg5v%2FczSjlEN5lvNiigZhGPdfJuvpYsQ73mWcA%2B9%2BydFBBbKwk8iFsk1dMvU6PwfuWXqgN1%2B35P%2B1F%2FtD8WAqkUFTdL%2Bb9LF8DofxEY8Rc%2BF--wTK%2BJEIEoB60xYBMaLBvzfdWVgkhBFG0V49fRF67LrP%2FW8sKET540WHyA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9b8xv7YYw

Just when it should be as we dont need heating in the summer so the money may aswell buy models............so do we find out at making tracks in a few weeks................nice modern layout to spot the liverys on......hint hint..:)

I would think the Chinese assembly team are the stars of the show using their skill to build the models,especially the one who gave the ultimate sacrafice and assembled the purple deltic.....:) the trick is keeping them together as the skill base gets better.

The 66 is the model for today and as it was looked at as the red death when they came in force it is the Marmite of locos for the late 90,s modeller. the only ones i did not buy are this and the green freightliner.Just good to see them start to arrive and no list of this that and the other moans that they are not 110% perfect in every way.

Diana Ross.......:)

Would also need to de EWS the sides, just remembered i had seen it last year going on its holidays to Scotland on the WCML.

So for anyone who likes the challenge removing the one and adding the two and the DB and HSE stickers could be modern day 66002 model made with 001, thanks for the reply Jo.

Well since they have the molding for 66001 the next batch it needs done DB red for todays railway modellers. has to be the way to go now they have it to use. As far as im aware the next ones they are doing are picked so might be a big reveal soon...........

The fact its based on the Hattons model has put this on a great footing and only improve,the Hattons one was nothing that could not be fixed and improved and not many for sale says a lot as to its quality. I knew my bet would be safe with Jim at the drivers seat,is the Accurascale driver scaned from the man himself for 100% accuracy??

Looks like a point issue rather than driver issue,only his pride will hurt and he will no doubt get plenty leg pulling about it by his workmates.

Its the GT with Janspeed exhaust...........could be the roof angle out.

If anyone could drive a 66 i would have bet on you being the man Jim..........

As always Accurascale have went the route of 100% accuracy by releasing 66001 into traffic first for the acceptance trials on layouts before commencing with the rest of the locomotives,we are back to 1998.

They are right on the money as the rucksack full of bricks guy is there for modelling shows......:)

As with any modelling Fran and the boys have to expand and make best use to improve their portfolio, not sure if and when the swimsuit versions are comming soon, look out little people,Bernard Cribbons eat your heart out..........:)

Its past April first so i guess Guinness does cloud your judgement e mail today We have our very first Accurascale model in stock in TT120 scale, and to celebrate, it's strictly limited to just 120 packs. Our Accurascale research pack of three figures is now also available in TT120 scale and in stock now! Produced using the latest 3D scanning and 3D printing techniques by our friends Modelu, they are also made in Britain! Depicting our model research team, they can be posed beside your TT models in a siding, just like how we research future on the real railway. Maybe you can use them to hint at what future TT models you would like to see us make, or just add a little cameo to a corner of your TT layout. Should we make models in TT? Sales of these figures may encourage us, or they might turn out to be our only ever model in TT120 scale. The power is in your hands!

Well booster on the launch table overnight and today should start launch tests by the look of closures. This should be the one to see a better re entry as the roll thrust problem will be identified and addressed for this flight test im sure.

Looks like booster eleven going to pad next few hours and road closure for testing tomorrow. https://www.cameroncountytx.gov/spacex/

Well it would make sence on Mars to use diesel to warm up and build an atmosphere in the long term.
