I guess these will be with us July/August if they are in production from March and everything falls inline ? Correct. Actually we started production before Chinese New Year. Still in the early stages, but well on the way! Cheers! Fran 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted February 14, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 14, 2022 Well, it's all about setting the sparks flying, right? Probably best not to buy the wife a dyson today, though... Cheers! Fran 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shedmaster Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Hi All, I can’t help thinking that if Accurascale did TV adverts, they’d probably be the best in the world, just like their model trains? I bet they have an office just like this one at Accurascale Towers… Kindest Regards, Shed. 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47606odin Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 @Accurascale Fran, I’m just hoping you don’t upscale this into O gauge, because if you do, I’m going to need a 2nd job, maybe even a 3rd 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 97406 Posted February 22, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) Just pre ordered a 92, in the original grey livery. Hopefully looking forward to a nice bit of gentle panto action on the catenary! Please, please, please do some spare pantographs, you lovely Accurascale people!

RMweb Premium ERIC ALLTORQUE Posted February 22, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 22, 2022 O gauge....you could have an internal van de graff generator so it zaps you if you get near the pantograph,and a walking talking driver from these boys.

I must admit to a little thigh rubbing at the O gauge models on display at the Donny show the other week, but the cost, space, and lack of AC Electric classes will keep me in OO for the duration. Plus the more accurate kits cost more than the less accurate RTR models do! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodness only knows how someone of my age copes with ‘N’! I was trying out a couple of Dapol easi couplings, didn't realise I had lost the tiny springs from both couplings, took an age to find them. How on earth I will refit them I don't know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
