RMweb Gold McC Posted December 15, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 15, 2018 Hi, Fran will the dcc socket on your new Deltic accept current Version 4 Loksound soundchips or only the new one you mention? Hi Simon, The Deltic features a 21pin MTX socket, and will work just fine with any compatible DCC chip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel_H Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Enjoyed this thread and the pictures; they look even better colour corrected. It's interesting that a number of posters have mentioned '16 in purple as the first time they'd seen a mainline Deltic; it's good to see that there are new people in the hobby, and not just us old f*rts!

G-BOAF Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Is this condition too short lived to be commercially viable? https://www.englishelectric.org.uk/55016/h1b1b1e15#h1b1b1e15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually looks half decent like that in two tone green. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-BOAF Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) Well, she was in purple in that condition and we are tooling that up.... My question exactly (and without asking you to give away any future plans), I wanted to demonstrate that the WIPAC tooling is not a 'single livery'... But yes I am shamelessly livery wishlisting for this beautiful mix of modern and heritage. Edited December 17, 2018 by G-BOAF 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes I am shamelessly livery wishlisting for this beautiful mix of modern and heritage. Well, if we tool it up for one livery, it would kinda seem silly not to even do a short run of it in its other livery, right? One day.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted December 17, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 17, 2018 If the Deltics had lasted 10 years later... an Intercity Deltic might have looked like this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Phil Bullock Posted December 21, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) What a great Christmas card too. Absolutely! Is that the special edition card with TWO Deltics in the snow sent out to us misers with only one on order to encourage us to order a second one???? Hee hee Christmas wishes to all at Accurascale - and a very successful 2019 too Phil Edited December 21, 2018 by Phil Bullock Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSpencer Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) What a great Christmas card too.Agree. Lovely card. Strangely my wife got one as well. Either they have secret agents gathering all sorts of personal info or I must have liked their Facebook page - full of Christmas ideas - too often! What a splendid company. An absolutely wonderful Christmas and a prosperous and healthy 2019 to Accurascale and all members on here.

NoelG Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I will have to limit my A class orders so I can also buy a few of these Deltic to haul my British outline coaching stock (maroon ex-LMS and ex-GWR) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

delticfan Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 A bit off topic sort of but I watched a short programme about ex sex pistols singer John Lydon, not everyones taste I suspect but he grew up in the 60’s and 70’s literally 5 mins walk from Finsbury Park shed. Is he a Deltic fan maybe he will buy a model! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reevesthecat Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Thanks for the Christmas card but for some reason I got 2- is there a glitch in the system somewhere? Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac1874 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Christmas card a great idea and only further enhances the feeling that you guys ‘get it’ and will deliver us models to knock our socks off! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRDBLUE17 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Hi Fran and team, Thank you for the card, nice image. Mine was addressed to the Mrs and she said I assume this is yours - easier to use her Paypal. The Deltic looks superb and will hopefully get 55022 in the future up to date form for Rannoch. All the best Merry Christmas Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he a Deltic fan maybe he will buy a model! His parents are Irish so might try and flog him a metrovick too. Read in his biography that he used to catch rats as a child so maybe 25s are more his bag, hard to know.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Daddyman Posted December 24, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 24, 2018 Agree on what's been said about the Xmas card - nice gesture, and yes, I got the coded message: I need to order a second one. Thanks chaps! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
