The chains will make it hard to get the body off but they look great, so I do appreciate the effort to model them. The lift off section on the roof is a good idea for people wanting to fit DCC themselves, although I didnt make a note of which way round it goes so I might have put it back on the wrong way!

Hound Dog Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 20 minutes ago, E100 said: Whilst I've not had experience directly of this, through the interactions of other forum members it's clear that whilst Accurascale do try to get things right first time they don't always. Despite this, what makes them so trustworthy and worthy of me giving them a significant portion of my hard earned cash is the fact that they are always consistently good at resolving the issue in the customers favour within reason and striving to improve for next time through taking positive action. Hearing situations such as this actually in many ways improves my confidence in them rather than dents it. Could not agree more - every manufacturer in all walks of life has issues and challenges from time to time, but it is how they respond and address customer concerns that separates the “best in class” from the others……… from what I have seen so far Accurascale seem striving to excel in this area………. As modellers themselves they will want to treat people they way they would want to be treated themselves - stick to that ethos and they will not go far wrong. ps - when my Deltic arrives at 4pm this afternoon, it better be bloody perfect or these guys will soon find out what an angry customer is !…….. only kidding 😀 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aside, you’ve gone for the same two as me. Good choice! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
