RMweb Gold Mr.S.corn78 Posted October 16, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, Accurascale Fran said: Hi everyone, Here is some footage of the tipplers in action on Charwelton, running in their individual rakes to begin with. Ah yes, the 'jumbo' train at the end. At least is shows the lovely free running of our tipplers, with one loco handling all 35 wagons with consummate ease! Less than two weeks till delivery and the orders are flying in, so if you fancy some don't hang about! Get your order in direct or via your local stockist! Cheers! Fran They ran very freely. Hope to recreate something similar when the 37s arrive and we can triple head them!!!! BUT I have this feeling that we may run out of track and stock before they start to show any sign of slowing down!!! Many thanks for allowing us to have a play with the samples.

daz9284 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 @Accurascale Fran will you be doing the wagons in the Yeoman Livery as per the picture in the inital press release? (The revised livery with the additional 'Y' logo)? many thanks Darryl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 liveries they have done span the wagons life pretty well, plus there is the steel coil wagons to follow too. So for a new model its pretty diverse - most manufacturers only do three liveries in a first batch! Best Wishes, C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't think off the top of head what other liveries they had, so it would be strange to just do one livery. Will have to get in touch with them to amned my order.

rembrow Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Accidental timing but it now seems that the Dapol O&K Yeoman bogie hoppers are also arriving in the next few weeks, so the opportunity to run PTAs and the O&K types in the same rake,lucky I have already paid for the PTAs.

lyneux Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) The majority of them were undergoing repainting into the later livery (which Accurascale haven’t done yet) during 1989 which was the time that the JHAs came in. You might find photos of one or two very dirty ones hanging on in the old livery but by 1990 they had mostly been repainted.

Guy Thanks, I did think that the PTA livery might be earlier, but decided not to wait and see if Accurascale do a later livery run, but I'm not concerned as I operate a general period of 1994 to 2003 approx. Not worried about complete authenticity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

slg Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 From their Facebook page. So glad I ordered these, just need some heavily worn down original liveried ones to go with them like in the video I previously posted. 5 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lyneux Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hi Fran, I'm contemplating another order with you in addition to the ARC wagons. Looking at the pics on your website, the Yeoman liveried wagons are displaying quite a bit of colour bleed on the logos. Can you confirm if this has been sorted on the production wagons? Thanks, Guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted October 20, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hi Guy, That image is from a pre-production model and the factory had been instructed to remedy the situation. It's a very challenging surface to print on mind you with the ribs as they are with a solid colour and the extreme close up is very unflattering, but they assured us the production models are better. Many thanks for your interest and input as always. Fran 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRDBLUE17 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I really shouldn’t have, but the British Steel blue/orange livery was too tempting and after seeing them running and that boxed pack I’ve put in an order via retailer for those today.

Clagsniffer Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Has there been any updates as to when these wagons are due for delivery? Has the issue with the ARC liveried wagon bodies been solved regarding the plastic warping? Presumably these wagons will be dispatched later than the other liveries? cheers.

Hi Clagsniffer, The PTAs are currently awaiting customs clearance in the port. There is a week long tail back for ships at the moment which caused delay. As previously stated the ARC tipplers will arrive with the JSAs in December and are pretty much complete. Cheers! Fran 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold BR Blue Posted October 28, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 28, 2020 It always amazed me how these were never done before. Considering anyone who wanted one, wanted a lot more than one We only had the old Lima version. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
