Fran Hi Fran, With reference to some late 80s versions (red and yellow) without the cross bars then are these on the horizon? Just trying to plan the budget and I need a bag load of them at some point! Thanks, Rich. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCML100 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Hi Accurascale team! I was wondering if you guys tooled the early body MHA variant in your tooling and if so can we expect these sometime in the future?! Would love to replace my Hornby ones with some that match the quality of your current later body style MHA’s! 😃 (sorry if i have asked this before - I cannot remember!) thanks, Peter 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Simon Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Hi, Am I right in thinking the intention was to produce loads for this range? (and the HYA's?) I would like to get some loads for the rake of MHAs I've got (when I make them, they are always rubbish!) and I haven't found anyone doing them, unless the ones for the Hornby / Bachmann models will fit?

Simon The early HAAs have tie bars across the top which make it difficult to produce a load that will just drop in. At least that was my take on comments made after release. This of course would not be a problem for later types. Perhaps some with the early types would be happy to remove the bars, as they wouldn't be seen when a load was carried. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruston Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 (edited) Sorry if I've missed it but there are 21 pages of this to wade through and as I can't see any on the Accurascale website, I'm wondering if loads are available, or are going to be available, for the HAA/HOP AB? Or if not, what have other people done about loads? I need removable loads and while I usually make my own loads the problem with these hoppers is the cross bracing. They will need to be cut out and embedded in the loads, but then when the wagon is running empty the cross bracing will be absent. If loads are going to be made, will there also be a removable insert that can be put in for empties? Or are these parts available as spares so I can make my own? This conundrum aside they are really nice wagons. Edited December 14, 2023 by Ruston 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
