New deltic
in Heljan
I was intending resisting the new batch of Deltics but having seen images of them succumbed. I’ve corrected the eth cables on 55022 & painted them black. As regards 55015 I’ve blinged this up & added Railtec 3D Rainhill plaques to the headcode panels. Both models have been further enhanced with Protoneo self adhesive etched nameplates which match exactly the size of the factory applied nameplates. Would be great if somebody was to produce Deltic Farewell headboards in 0 !

Very nice you need to remove the centre section of the plough on 37 610 as it doesn’t have it in real life .
I had noticed that from images. Must help the poor shunters in real life but decided to fit mine in the 00 world 👍🏻

Received my 37051 model today & very pleasing it is too. I had to refix two items of loose glazing but as the body comes off very easily the task wasn’t daunting at all. The redesigned bogie chain fixing helped too as I’d accidentally dislodged one. The shape, the detailing & the finish are all up to Accurascale’s usual standard. I’m very impressed how easily the bufferbeam pipework slots into their respective apertures. No filing to remove excess plastic or thick paint was required. Looking forward to several more other versions when they arrive.

I used T Cut on my 144011 certainly looks a lot better now.
Did the transfers all survive intact ? Lighter rubbing across those & the windows ? The yellow ends are far too dirty. Thankyou

If one was to remove the weathering from the EFE 144’s what would be the best method please ? The factory weathering is a little heavy for my liking. Many Thanks.

Apologies but I’ve not run mine yet.

No sandboxes in the box. I’m hoping that Rails of Sheffield will receive some for onward transmission to purchasers. Just hope that they are weathered to match the bogies.

No real surprise there then!
I messaged Hornby spares requesting a pair of their black plastic drawhooks at least & was told that those items weren’t part of the original moulding & therefore couldn’t be supplied as spares.Good job I had some Accurascale screw links handy.
Luckily my models are for static display only.

Question for those who have the DPS ltd ed of D9009… has anyone tried to put on the ETH connection on the buffer beam when adding the detail? I cant seem to see any place for them to go… @Accurascale Fran any ideas?
EDIT: tried it with them on but the wire hangs too low and scrapes the rail and restricts the movement of the bogie. However a snip of the cable but leaving the eth connection boxes on solves the problem. Hope this helps anyone.
