    YES YES YES, I'm so glad to see some transpennine coaches available on the market again at long last, I've been after some for so long and can finally make a prototypical rake of these, with class 45 and 47 at the front. What a great announcement though, fills such a big void in the market and a much needed one to be filled. Great video as ever gents, keep up the great work

      Something they learned in the development of the A class. What was initially a model 1 year away turned out to be 3 years away. Hence after consulting there community. Accurascale will only announce something when at least an un decorated sample is visible

    Love the seating with those typical winged headrests. The number of times I have banged my head on them! Hopefully a TSOT will be later Have just placed an order for them and if you buy two or more you get a discount.

    Accurascale offer fair value for money at £75 for three 4 wheel trucks or two bogie trucks. £51 for these carriages seems fair also given the level of detail.

    A very astute choice, looks excellent and pricing is decent. Can we expect some BR MK2Cs to follow and was that a very subtle hint that a class 50 is to haul over the Waterloo to Exeter route?!

    I think Richard could be right - a game-changer. They certainly should be. After these hit the shops, all future passenger stock should have touching gangways; there's no excuse. It's taken a wee while(nearly 100 years) and kind of funny that it's one of the "smaller" manufacturers that got there first. Hopefully, one of the Accurascale designer team will become very, very rich. Makes you wonder though; where were Hornby, Bachmann, Dapol etc?

    Love that coupling system, really clever. Hopefully they branch out and use the same system on other coaches. Either that or other manufacturers get hold of them and reverse engineer it. Would love this on some Mk1’s.

    Great idea, but how dod they prevent the carriage lights turning off and on every time they pass the magnetic effect caused by an electric motor in another locomotive or DMU ? as I have this problem with my magnetic operated latching reed switched carriage lighting turning off or on every time they pass a stationary or moving locomotive or emu.

    • @Ste1952
      @Ste1952 3 роки тому +1

      Per the release, they were popped out of the moulding too early for the launch. The bowing is purely cosmetic, and will of course be rectified. Next stage is the decorated / painted samples.

      You get a 10% discount if you order 2 or more so that is, about £54 a coach. That compares very favorably with other manufactures offerings at this level of specification. You can get cheaper coaches but not at this spec. You can also get similar quality coaches but not at this low a price.
