Both, Accurascle, Ollie & the Colne Valley Railway can be pride of this adventure, only wish this was a 6 mouths earlirer warning, I would have modeled in O gauge in stead off OO living and modeling on a narrow boat!

Great starter loco for an O gauge newbie

[@ThePhosphater]

Well done Accurascale. I have purchased one of these in the Tarmac livery, tho I am going to repaint it. Look forward to more O gauge stock being issued.

[@martinsurridge7390]

Sounds like an interesting project, could be the start of a few new "O" gauge layouts? Maybe a short garden heritage line!

I don’t model O Gauge, but for those who do, this, is going to be amazing!!

[@InterCityBR]

I hope this model does well for you guys, not for me personally as a shunter on a large garden Railway isn't of much use and with a scale speed of 15mph as well. Should be a good seller for indoor shunter layouts and people getting in O, then hopefully we'll see some bigger 'mainline' locos in O then really see how good accurascale are! :)

nice modelk model thanks lee

[@JamesPetts]

Isn't that Ollie from Wardle Road...?

[@CustomiZe_]

Yup certainly is!

[@blairrobinson4760]

I hope it will have enough weight so as not to suffer from adhesion problems.

[@davidshaw5979]

it has to be a heavy diesel, class 40 or one of the Peak class 44, 45,or 46. As an outside guess it could be the Deltic Prototype that would be something to see.

[@gilbertporter4992]

Maybe smaller as they are just starting in O gauge?

[@southern207hobbies]

Windleroad!

[@petercsre]

either a co-bo, baby deltic or a 24? please.

[@Northerner_Transport_Hub]

Best of luck dipping your toes into 0 gauge!

[@rprodgers1]

Class 22 or a Class 67 - one of those

[@Northernbiker64]

Produce a 101 or 108 dmu

I bet Sam of Sam’s Trains t1t5 are spinning with excitement.
