I'm sure I've seen that's the case Caution... The sheer volume of research, attention to detail and possible variants, right down to horn position, grills and screen wipers... Accurascale would definitely be justified in turning the tables on RMWebbers, becoming Headmaster and critiquing & marking our modifications for accuracy... ive already folded... I’m already practising lines “I must try harder” 1000x and pre-polished the naughty step in expectation of this. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will have what we state as a default fitting but dominos or headcode blinds etc will be provided to be alternatively fit by the end user. Cheers!

Unfortunately this was something I missed when placing my order for 55 017, so it looks like I'll have to alter the order for a second time (from 55 017 to 55 011) as I'd prefer a plated over version. Order changed, with apologies to Accurascale for cancelling a second time. Hopefully it won't happen again. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraken Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Apologies if this is a daft question; the DPS/Locomotion/Rails model of the Royal Highland Fusilier seems to have a small hatch/cover above the name to the right of the vent. Could somebody tell me what this is? I may have missed it but I can't see it on any of the other models? I deliberated too long about the Black Watch and missed my chance, but will probably order this one from the DPS as a good alternative, and support a good cause in the process!

RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted April 18, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 18, 2021 Hi Kraken, it’s a water filler access hatch. It was used to fill water for the steam heat boilers and was plated over in the mid 70s. Cheers, Fran 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Legend Posted April 26, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Quick question . Will the Rails versions arrive at same time as main Accurascale versions ? Quite fancy “Royal highland Fusilier” but I think that’s only available from Rails . Edited April 26, 2021 by Legend Got wrong Deltic! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The Black Watch" was one of Accurascale's "regular" releases (two-tone green with yellow nose panel), but has sold out... Rails/DPS have "Royal Highland Fusilier" D9019 in similar livery (but I haven't checked the detailed spec). Edit: Please ignore - this post no longer makes sense now @Legend has edited their post...

Ollie K Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Finally took the plunge on the Rails D9008 yesterday evening, after a long time deliberating on liveries. Spent a while reading back through this thread and really appreciating the depth of information and thorough updates Accurascale has delivered. This will be the first non-steam loco I've ever owned. Totally out of period for what I like to model, but the quality of the product made me buckle! 5 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classsix T Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Forgive me for not analysing the entire 84 pages of the thread, could one of the Accurascale fellows advise on the likelyhood of Ballymoss having another run. It's the only FP white window racehorse I'd really like but understand fully should Accurascale wish to do another one next. Tia, C6T. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
