If 37216 is the exclusive I'd happily get one considering it's preservd at Blaenavon and she has been fired up a couple of times recently with a goal for a return to service soon so hopefully that is the case Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete the Elaner Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I had mentioned to some of the Accurascale staff at a show that I was patiently waiting for a SF 37 for my c1990 freightliners. Their response was simply to smile! Time to place an order. 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t it mentioned that the Accurascale exclusive would be announced in a ‘few weeks’? Unlikely to be a class 37 then this weekend, but you never know.

That's what I'm waiting for too - a WR centre headcode with skirts and TOPS numbering. I was really hoping Accurascale would announce that as Bachmann notably didn't. I certainly don't fancy my chances at removing 4 double arrows and 4 pre-TOPS numbers cleanly so won't be trying. 1 hour ago, tractionman said: ACC2611 Accurascale OO Gauge Class 37 Diesel in BR Blue with Orange Cantrail #37140 with the orange cantrail, are we looking at c.1983? cheers, Keith 37140 has the departmental sector yellow stripes under the right hand cab windows, the SF sparrow, orange cantrail stripe and black painted headcode panel (not dominos), which puts it from summer 1989. In February 1989 it still had yellow headcode panels but they were black by July 1989 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incase anyone's interested it looks like it didn't get the black headcode box in high visibility headlight guise until mid 1989. I'm thinking of respraying them yellow as I really want the plainer banger blue with the orange stripe, plus it's more central to my modelling period (though things still blur a little with me). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
virginhst539 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Thought I was safe with the last few announcements not being my era or region. would be rude not to get 37116 'Dora' as its known with sound. At this rate will have more 37s than I know what to do with! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig1989 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Don’t need anymore especially colas as I have 4 Bachmann ones but will probably order as well as 422 and 218 and my dad will go for the Dutch one. Also you guys know how to ruin my credit card cheers Craig 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted March 29, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 29, 2023 My wallet can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being, as there's still no plain blue tops no orange cantrail, or original condition LL 37/4. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I'd be inclined to do the same. It's a shame it ended up with black headcode boxes as even disregarding these it only had a five-year stint in its modelled livery.

Perhaps manufacture them with yellow headcode boxes and with decals if you want them black, and decals for the civil engineers stripy thing too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium DRS Crewe On A Mission Posted March 29, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 29, 2023 Another excellent announcement Accurascale. I know that many of us have been waiting for the announcement of the second batch of 37s. Just a quick question, apart from the eight models announced today, 37714 for the Heavy Tractor Group which was announced a while ago, and one Accurascale Exclusive to be announced is this all of the models that will be in the second batch? Are there no retailer Limited Editions/Exclusives in the second batch? I ask because I’m going to wait until all of the models for batch two are announced before pre-ordering any as my mind may change on which models to buy with the funds I have. Thank you in advance. Kind Regards, Danny. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind Regards, Danny. We’ve evolved our announcement process somewhat so that this batch is announced and delivered to schedule then another and so on. Each announcement represents a production ‘slot’ as our key goal is to deliver frequent announcements in a timely manner. So there will be more 37’s of course but they will be delivered after these ones. 5 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazil31 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I must have no resolve whatsoever, told myself I do not need any more loco's Just ordered the Dutch one and a Blue one through Derails. Then thought I would try the split payment feature from Accurascale and found out it does work quite well as now seam to of ordered the 2 green ones. I do have a soft spot for the 37's 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

norfolkchinaclay Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 The million $ (or should that be Euro?) question is whether the yet to be announced exclusive is HNRC 405/607 (607 has seen more use so better for me), 901 or poss 508 in Railfreight grey? Am wondering if the delayed announcement is waiting for 508 to be finished at BuT. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
