    JJA wagons only being made by 1 company is criminal in my opinion, EFE Rail have a similar based wagon in their product base so it can’t be that difficult to produce, I know EFE Rail has something to do Kernow’s, let’s hope great wagons like these don’t get ignored by manufacturers because they’re too busy producing wagons every other manufacturer produces.

    Hi, great review of a lovely loco with superb visual impact, this is a ultra detailed model like the Sutton models, for me the lack of a rotating roof fan is the only refinement missing to make the model the best in class, Accurascale did say that rotating fans would appear on models in the 3rd run, hopefully this will come to fruition, great to see this superb class 37 pulling a rake of JJA auto ballaster wagons, maybe Accurascale will produce those wagons in time and do them the justice they deserve at a price where modellers won’t get their pants pulled down with the secondhand Bachmann prices on DreamBay and at model railway shows & exhibitions, many thanks for sharing.

      @@mrmartinb1615 Accurascale have made some superb items over the years at prices that make the competition stand up and take note, those JJA wagons are no harder to produce than the 4 coach and 1 x dvt set they produced a couple of years ago, that pack had complex lighting in all the units and it sold for £269 which was seriously amazing, Accurascale’s attention to detail is superb! The JJA’s wouldn’t command that kind of complexity so I don’t believe we modellers would get our pants pulled down like Bachmann try to do on a regular basis even if their products are quite bulletproof, Dapol’s MRA wagons are on my to buy list but they claim they can’t produce them for a price all modellers would be tempted to buy, secondhand prices of those MRA wagons are £225 plus for a set of 5, if they did a rerun of them brand new for let’s say £189 they would sell very well even though the couplings were very fragile and poor, technology has come a long way since those wagons were released over 12 plus years ago, even smaller runs would definitely be a very popular choice like Accurascale do with their runs, their RTC coaches were a classic example of popularity when they sold out all 400 sets in a few hours, those coaches are the best RTC coaches on the market full stop! I don’t believe Accurascale will ever produce them again so for those luck modellers who got them I say fair play, I would like a set but I refuse to pay an extra £80 plus for the privilege and never will regardless of them being in my collection, not all new announcements float my boat but they do other modellers so I guess it’s a blessing for them.

      @@StormmyStormmy Very well said, they have come a long way, specially in quality and my hat does come off for creating the 'more you buy the more you safe' That is perfection and ALL manufactures should most definitely take note of that. Now I wonder if they took the job on in recreating the JJA's would they put working lights on them by the doors? That would be awesome if they made a rerun of the MRA wagons, mind you £225 don't sound bad, if they could produce them at that price as that makes them only £45 each......But I would think a pack of five would be a lot, lot more than that. Ya the couple between the wagons......a little different to say the leased. Wow 12 plus years ago. Well you never know, they might do a rerun of the RTC coaches. I would like them to do a little rerun of the PTA wagons as I need one inner set of the British Steel wagons. That is true, not every new release interest people, but that's not bad thing. lol 👍👍

    I wound up getting mine the same way, bits and pieces from exhibitions and various shops until I had a full 36 (12 Cav, 24 Accura). I found the Accura HAAs to be a better refined model, the couplers on the Cav models I have tend to be biased off centre and on a lot of them the brake shoes interfered with the wheels. The weathering job on the Cav HAAs from T4U and KMS is to die for though, its taken a long time to get my Accura HAAs to even come close.

    Hi Martin, great video review of a very nice locomotive, regarding the sound in my opinion Legomanbiffo sound file is better, the EM2 is a far better speaker than is smaller EM1 brother, there is a ESU passive speaker you could fit which sound better than the EM1/Accurathrash speaker, ESU 50348 4 ohm & ESU 50346 8 ohm, check them out as they are EM1 speaker upgrades, also if Accurascale wanted to put their stamp on this model why didn’t they make the cab instrument board light up like the rest of their diesel range, engineering out the EM2 fitment put me off getting one, when you own the original Hatton’s class 66 you appreciate how awesome it sounds, may when Bachmann updated their class 66 the capacity to fit an EM2 will considered, thanks for sharing.💎

      @@StormmyStormmy Thank you so much. I do have a non sound Accurascale Class 66 and I wasn't too sure what to go for, I'll find out closer to the time of fitting one what is out there. I would like "If possible" to have number 2 as brake where the rest of the functions wouldn't be too worries about. Thank you for the info in the speakers, interesting to know as I don't have a clue. Ya to be fair I was a little surprised that the dash didn't light up, probably cos it meant having to change too much in the cab (maybe) It'll be very interesting if or when Bachmann " re-engineer" their class 66. Seeing Seeing thier latest releases it'll be amazing. Your more than welcome. Thanks again. 👍👍

    Until recently they ran 2 trains a day hauled by class 60 and before that I recorded them with 3 x 37s. Their running times are available daily on "Realtime Trains" giving their passing times throughout the whole route, so it's no surprise when they pass.

    Where have you been then?. Class 60 tugs have been pulling 29-32 loaded oil tanks for years on that route. They all take the swansea & district toward port talbot. Their startoff pulling power is legendary. Sadly they were unreliable! But nevertheless, a magnificent sight to behold. Those 66 are truly ugly though.
