Class 92, By Accurascale

[McC]

Hornby Magazine unfortunately (or fortunately) got it wrong 

 

All versions like the Deltic, have the stay alive built in, both working pans, full

lighting suite and one small

speaker. The sound version adds the big accurathrash and sound chip.

I’ll try a cheapo one first and report back. It’ll do for something else if it’s not suitable. I’ve gone for one of these… https://www.dccconcepts.com/product/ae-model-21-pin-6-function-decoder/

I will be interested to know the results - A LokPilot 5 DCC/MM/SX/M4, 21MTC seems to be unavailable in the UK.

Looking forward to CS version and stretching its legs on Weaver Hill along with the sleepers, or an engineer's train Kingmoor to Mossend 

 

[ERIC ALLTORQUE]

Tomorrow morning at Accurascales warehouse now the stocks arriving

Yes it’s not the “approved” V5 for the U.K. market, it’s US and RoW primarily, I think ESU shot themselves in the foot not releasing on our market IMO.

Thanks - might be fun getting hold of one of them.

 

I have seen other 21 Pin DCC decoders -

Gaugemaster DCC95 Ruby Series 6fn Pro DCC Decoder 21 Pin

Dapol Imperium1 21 Pin MTC 6-function DCC decoder

 

Would one of those work?

I don't wish to buy the wrong thing.

Don’t rule out the excellent Zimo range, amazing motor control.

We’ll happily combine multiple orders just need to Ask. Otherwise we ship orders as they are ordered.

They are showing as sold out, if still available would Santa 🎅 deliver them to Ireland before Christmas if I was to order very soon, Thanks.

Quite pricey as well, though they are good. I’ve fitted DCC to 60 or so locos recently so opted for the cheaper decoders in the main and found them very respectable.

[vanbasher]

I'm absolutely dying for the email saying my 92010 & 020 are on their way. Please can I just ask anyone who may know if the Royal Mail strikes will affect DHL deliveries? Many thanks

DHL are under additional pressure for sure, but so far we've not seen much impact to local deliveries (tho the 'next day' service is typically taking 2-3 days now)!

Supply and demand? I expect these 92s are sucking up (tee hee) a lot of the global supply? The 50s will no doubt hoover up even more later on.

The shortage of chips will be playing its part, but my waistline’s never looked better! I’ll get me coat!

DHL is rubbish in my area very unreliable. 

An option to choose Royal Mail 48 hour tracked would be great, even if it required an additional payment.

DPD is best for round me as well but to be fair to DHL on this occasion they are delivering 92038 this afternoon. I don't have a layout or even a rolling road due to a loft conversion and everything needing to be in storage, so I will leave it to others to comment on performance.

[92009DBS]

My 92 was sent out yesterday and it just arrived  just gotta wait for my other 7 to come now 😂

They'll probably work but I expect that you will need more than 6 functions to make the most of the lighting on these machines. I'd just buy an ESU one and be done with it.

 

59619 is the EU spec one which doesn't have 3 point speed curve, 59629 is the "DCC" one without the legacy protocols on but with 3 point speed curve. I tend to buy 59629 as they are slightly cheaper, but have some 59619s from a time when I couldn't get hold of 59629s and had stuff arriving!

 

 

@boxbrownie this is what I was on about the other day, but wasn't at a PC to do the screenshot in terms of NEM660 vs MKL, "DCC" vs non "DCC".

 

It is also worth noting to those who may want a few of these, it is usually cheaper to buy from German sites and pay for shipping rather than buying in the UK in my experience. I only fit ESU and so tend to go through a few of these!

[Markn]

These look stunning.  Even with a West Country layout with no OHLE i'm trying to fight the urge to buy 92001!

If you want it before xmas id certainly avoid anything that isnt Special delivery if youre using rM. Over the strike days Tracked 48 and 2nd class parcels arent even being collected from post offices. You can imagine the backlog

Supposedly (according to eBay when I bought postage last night), "Tracked" is taking priority over "signed for". I aren't sure "tracked" can be left with the post office though, I think it gets collected or left at delivery offices and in parcel boxes.
