- Another month, another great event at Rails of Sheffield! We recently welcomed the team from Accurascale along to takeover our shop for two whole days. An incredible range of samples were on show for the entire range, with many models available now or due to arrive by the end of 2024. Watch on to see all the plans for the next year...

Would love to get hold of another run of Trans Pennine Express Mrk 5's. Plus a class 325's Royal Mail sets
Would like to see either a 325 or Meridian!
Yes please, would like to see another run of the TPE Mk5 coaches as I missed out first time round.
Another run of the MK5s would be welcome but please improve the lighting. The lighting should be like the recent MK2s. Also, factory installed chip with stay alive in the DVT for the TransPennine should be standard. I’d also like to suggest that you offer factory fitted crew option for those of us that prefer this. Retro fitting crew is a faff and can easily lead to damage to your loco.
A Class 185 DMU would be good. They operate over quite a wide area across the North and would complement items in your existing range. I’d also like to see an 00 gauge Class 120 DMU, which also worked a lot of areas of England, Wales and Scotland. They’ve been much requested in wishlist polls for many years, and despite one supposedly in work in N, no one has risen to the challenge yet in 00!
Another popular DMU not produced by anyone is the TPE Class 185 and that would go well with the TPE Mk5 coaches you already produce
I would also like to see the TPE class 185 in the two TOPS numbers so I could do a 6 car train . Also another run of class 66 and mark 2C coaches in DRS Nuclear Escort scheme
A class 325 Royal Mail set would be a nice model and a first RTR from a great model maker. 😊 iain
I have to say, it was a little jaw-dropping seeing the extent of the range these days, all laid out on the table. Nice work Accurascale and cheers Rails for hosting 👍
A rerun of the Mk5 coaches would be great.
For ideas of new exclusive locomotives, the GWR The Great Bear 4-6-2 comes to mind.
For something smaller, the Duke of Sutherland’s 0-4-4T Dunrobin would be nice. It’ll fit different eras including preservation. With the same tooling you might be able to do the Highland Railway W Class 0-4-4T which were near identical from my understanding. The HR ones would fit different eras and complement other brands’ products potentially increasing sales.
Class 73/9 please with a rerun of the Mk5 sleepers for Scottish Highlands
Enjoyed the video, would like to see a rerun of the MK5 Sleepers, missed out the first time!! Also would like to see the Class 185 introduced has a new model to match the TPE MK5 Stock
Please bring out an Accurascale HST class 43!!!
Joint venture new-tooled loco with Rails - Class 40
KR Models are already developing a Class 40, so would be head to head competition if Accurascale also developed one.
We need it after Bachmann messed up with a huge gap inbetween the chasis and body. A class 45 would be great as Heljan messed that up and Bachmann's is old.
Rerun of the Caledonian Mk5s - yes please. In terms of new items, then some of the missing DMUs such as Class 120, 123, 124 and 141. Or even a Class 40 from the English Electric stable
Class 312/2 seeing this often at BNS late 70's - 80's whilst stopping at station for least 15 Mins whilst our class 47 was changed over to Electric 86 (often) or sometimes a cheeky 87 before seeing Grandma at Preston from South Coast vs BR XC
MkIId's to go with the Deltics would be nice.
17:08 be nice to see some black 5 variants i.e caprotti and double chimney+ high running plate.
I think that’s the sickest into I’ve ever seen
Some quality products there! Thanks Accurascale and Rails for this video!
As for future projects my vote goes to a class 442 wessex electrics (and my dream scenario is you'd have end units available individually or 2/3 car options also being available to make it more affordable and possible to run on smaller layouts!) Keep up the excellent work!
Fantastic to see the progress on all their various projects. Mk5s 100% need a rerun, would be nice to see them in the unbranded white livery a few sets are carrying atm. In terms of projects I'd like to see as a joint venture between yourselves...
TPE Class 185
Class 58
Class 81,82, 83 and 84
Seacow/Sealion wagons
Class 120
Class 08
James
A wonderful update. I can't think of a specific project to suggest but would say another run of the MK 5's would be welcome. Keep up the excellent work
Fab range of products. Can't wait for all the locos i've ordered. Class 325 'Royal Mail', i'd take two units, one powered (DDC ready) and one with no motor to make up an eight coach rake
Yes a run of the mark 5 coaches would be great. I think the 70s and 80s scene defo needs a RTR HTO and HTV coal hopper wagon variant, hitherto only available as a kit.
Would most definitely welcome another run of the Mark V's! Especially for those of us who couldn't get them the first time round.
An LNWR Claughton has been on my want list for years and would be a heck of a choice for an exclusive model.
Your 'Manor' is the best yet, so I would like to see a top-class correctly shaped GWR Dean Goods.
mk5 TPE defo - I have a 68 waiting to have a new set!!!, Then from a niche side - would love a 325 - would buy 2 to run together!
Just doing some basic MSRP maths.
1 x accurascale coach £59.95
1x accurascale class37 £169.99
so 4 car 325 could be around £350
169.99 + (3 x 59.99) = 349.96
This should be able to cover D&D, tooling etc... come one Accurascale get on it!!
100% rerun the MK5s, maybe an improvement to the lighting would be a good idea aswell
If you've never visted the 'Rails' shop, think about doing so. It's an absolute delight and not an indulgence too far, especially if you've bought something and prefer to collect.
Yes we need a second run of Mk5 coaches, especially the TPE set.
I really want one but sadly missed out the first time.
Here is a bit of a Left Field suggestion. How about a model of a Sheffield Tram?
I’d love a 185, 325, 304, 305, a full suite of the civity multiple unit family which covers several TOCs and a good swathe of the country! Maybe JGA cement wagons (different diagram to the Bachmann versions), Binliner wagons including bins and rolling stock, any of the various Aggregates wagons that haven’t been produced yet such as the JGA (eg JG009D diagram) or IIA-B (eg IIE937 diagram)
Or how about rail plant equipment, autoballasters, tampers, ballast cleaners, rail grinders and so on?
So many choices 😆
A rerun of the mk5's in Transpennine...yes please... to go nicely with Dapols 68.
Yes to the Mk5s and a Midland Pullman set!
An exclusive prototypical correct DP2 would be brilliant and makes sense after doing the class 55s and class 50s
I lost out on the sleeper mk5 due to illness so yes I would be certainly looking to order a full set if they were a available again
50031 in Intercity Swallow as in preservation would be a great a unique exclusive, for a second run of the 50s. HEAs and some intermodal stock would be nice too.
Thanks for the updates and the chance to make suggestions. Mark 5 sleepers please - missed our before.
Definitely a yes on mk5's, specifically the Caledonian Edinburgh sets
My list : 37425 in large logo two options of former names pride of the valleys and Sir Robert McAlpine /concrete Bob...
A far superior reliable 08 from what is currently available.
And a 3 car metro Cammel 101....as bachmann just hasn't come to the party with this much wanted dmu with many enthusiasts
Can’t wait for my class 66 to arrive!
LETS HAVE A CLASS 86 , there are loads of options
A challenging exclusive - A GWR slip coach. The real challenge would be to have a working one
Definitely a rerun would be nice on the mk5s
Another run of sleepers and Pennine mk5 I will buy both
Next rails exclusive: class 37/6 in eps livery with Eurostar coupling assembly.
As a more general request maybe Pullman coaches.
I would like too see a LNER Sentinal Railcar 👍🏻
They would have made more commercial sense than the NER petrol-electric model, I suspect.
It would be really nice to see LMS/midland region items - Caprotti black 5 or Standard 5 for example or maybe Aspinall 060 as a special with Rails of Sheffield. But most desirable would be LMS period 1 and 2 coaches as they are almost completely absent from rtr yet there are so many suitable locomotives made by various manufacturers for these.
Would love to see the mk5s return. The DT could really benefit from a front kinematic coupler though In my opinion.
As for future projects I’d quite like a class 57 (especially if you could make the dellner operate 😉)
And niche wise always wanted a rake of plasmor wagons. Would sit perfectly behind your new class 66s
A GWR Collett bogie passenger full brake to follow up the Siphon G would be a great addition to the range. It's not available in any other RTR range and would assist complement the Manor too.
YES!
Hello Rails & Accurascale. Excellent video and a superb, ever-increasing range of lovely models!
Some 'niche suggestions'...
1. Bulleid Tavern Car Sets
2. Gresley Triplet Articulated Restaurant Sets
3. Ivor the Engine
The Great Northern Railway (GNR) Small Boiler Class C1 'Henry Oakley' 4-4-2 as preserved in York railway museum
Something in TT120 would go down a treat.
I would love to see a class 185 in TPE livery and/or a class 397 in TPE livery (ideally both) as these will conpliment the mk5 coaches and allow modellers to model the complete TPE fleet. (Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🏼)
I defiantly would like to see another run of the mk5 in TPE livery, its a great model and a great livery
What a harmless' innocent little hobby, i don't have any interest in trains myself although i liked the copy of Stephenson's rocket in York railway museum. I hope they do well anyway. God bless them.
Do an 08 shunter 😊
I’d second the Class 08’s!
Yes please thank you another run of the Mark 5 coaches! Also a BR Class 81 AC Electric, a BR Class 124 DMU, a BR Class 140 pacer and a BR Class 325 EMU (Royal Mail) please! Thank you!
Good suggestion - a run of BR 70's class DMU's like Class 101, 110, 142 (Bus Pacer Units), 156 etc would be good. For me whilst travelling XC from South Coast - Preston late 70's - mid 80's seeing late loved Grandma at Preston really fancied the DMU Class 312/2 seeing this often at BNS whilst stopping at station for least 15 Mins whilst our class 47 was changed over to Electric 86 (often) or sometimes a cheeky 87 and vice versa on way home.
Congrtatulations to Accurascale and Rails for these exciting announcements! The 'Buckjumper' is on my wanted list already! With respect to new models may I suggest something from the following list of steam locomotives not yet modelled in OO gauge. (1) The LNER B16 4-6-0......this is crying out to be modelled! There are different versions to make maximum use of the tooling. (2) The L&Y 'A' class 0-6-0. There are preserved examples of this sturdy loco. The engines were to be found all over Lancashire and parts of Yorkshire. (3) The LBSC 'K' Class 2-6-0. Another loco full of character. (4) A Caledonian 4-4-0. Scotlands' railways are not particularly represented compared with England but a Caley engine would be wonderful!!....... and finally a little engine (5) the Kitson 0-4-0ST. Again different versions.......I would love to hear responses from Acurascale and/or Rails on these suggestions. Thank you once again.....the Manors are superb!!
Would like to see some more classic EMUs, like the 308 or even the 507/508 for third rail.
Would be great to finally see a ready to run Caledonian Railway 419 0-4-4 tank loco (as preserved at Bo'ness). No view on the coaches since they're out of my period, but producing the proposed Hattons Batch 3 Genesis coaches (specifically the Caledonian Railway ones) would be brilliant!
Yes, please, to both the TPE and Caledonian Mark 5s. I’ve got the locos - just need the rolling stock to go with them!
Much better now Alex has joined the team
I'd like to see the CL and SLO Mk1's available in early BR Crimson livery. The rest of the range look great!
Would love to see a lner v4
Class 40 PLEASE 👍😀
Lets go with the GNSR V/F Class/LNER D40/SE&CR G Class, lots of liveries and tooling variations there!! LNER, GNSR, SE&CR, Southern and British Railways examples!!!!
Another run of Mk 5’s improved lighting and some extra detail in the cab, would like to see some made up liveries on the class 89 maybe a Network Southeast, Virgin red & grey and Railfreight. New locos class 67, 08 and a class 442 Wessex express EMU, would be nice to see a continuation of the MK 2‘S A, D, E and could not end without saying HST and MK 3’s please I have money in the bank waiting for them😀 enjoyed my visit to Rails and meeting you all.
I’ve just ordered an Class 310 from Britannia Pacific. Never been made RTR but we’re around for very long time on many routes and carried a myriad of liveries. Based on the MK2 body.. 😉
Great video. My preferences would be a Class 74 or Hastings DEMU. Thanks. John
For my two pennies worth, an Industrial 0-6-0 Manning Wardle Littleton No. 5 would be great as a unique one off model! Built local to Rails in Leeds, celebrity loco in the 80s at Littleton Quarry (would go well with your quarry wagons) and also was a runner in the early days of Great Central.
I'd love to see another run of the Caledonian Sleeper stock and loco. I missed out on them the first time round and its on my wish list to pick a set up!
A proper version of the lord of the isles train pack , single wheeler and its coaches..😀
Would love to see some Scottish steam. Caley 439 class, NBR D34 Glen, Caley 123 Single and LNER D49 would be top of my list
LBSCR L class Baltic tank. No one has produced a Baltic type (not including the Triang continental model). It can run with pre-grouping and southern models. The chassis can be utilised later for an N15x. You have 333 remembrance for a special edition. It will accompany the rails terrier nicely. It's interesting enough for a rule 1 purchase. There are many sound reasons to consider the L class tank engine.
A GWR saint would be amazing following on from your fantastic manor
I would very much like to see more MK5 produced. I wanted to get the fort William portion which had sold out! But lovely models none the less
Definately a class 40! Some MK2Ds and a decent class 153 unit in oo. I would definately have a second run of the TPE Mk5 set, missed out!...
May be DP2 and a Class 40
Hey, just as a Suggestion, what about a Furness Railway K1 or K2? The FR is seriously undermodeled! Do them please!
Good idea 😊
I'd love an A5 (No 20) as well as a K1 or K2. Fully agree, FR is almost completely unrepresented and is a great pre-grouping subject.
Class 442, Electrostar 375/7/9/387,
Yes another run of the MK5's would be good
Yes to another run of the TPE Mk5.
How about a 185 for the next exclusive?
A modern GWR 22xx 0-6-0 "Collett Goods" would be great.
Loco - 37116 after its Donny refurb as Sister Dora.
Coaches - More runs of test train coaches would be well received. Also res PCV. I know it’s already been done but they are like rocking horse poo to get hold of. Could also lead into doing a 307!
Wagon - thought about this the other day and anything that used to drop onto the enterprise services of the 90’s/00’s. 609’s, 610’s would be good
Wickham class 109 DMU. The pair at Llangollen are only waiting for you! Please thank you
Another run of the trans Pennine MK5's would be a good re-run. I have one of the 68's in that livery I missed out on those coaches
I'd love to have the 64' BR Mk 1 suburbans - especially in southern region green for S-BS-C-BS-S Exmouth sets! Take my money!
A class 439 tank engine to go with the 812. Alternatively a class 185. Another run of mk5 sleepers is very much needed. Some left field ones would be a LNER V4 in time to coincide with the new built and a LNER K4.
The class 31s are shaping up too be decent models, cant wait too see what you guys guna do next, class 13 with rails? Would be fitting being the doorstep of tinsley ;D
Another run of CS mk5s would be tempting. If you’re looking for an exclusive, maybe a multiple unit to be different?
There is new “game changer” OLE from West Wagon Works , you are making a supper detailed Class 89 . But there is a hugh hole of Class 81/82/83/94 - any of these would be great .
Bulleild Tavern coaches. Long overdue for OO RTR treatment l. They would be a huge hit as they were a novelty and served on most regions.
I'd love to see DP2 done to Accurascale standard👌
How about Mk2 D's and a Voyager
I’d second both of those choices. The Airfix derived Mk2D toolings are fast approaching 50 years old and the Bachmann Voyager is a bit long in the tooth, not DCC ready, plus there is a new Cross Country livery that is going to be applied to their refurbished sets. Both have massive geographic spread across the UK and would complement existing ranges.
For me; Rake of Highly detailed Coach MK 3's, and ultimate detailed locos of Class 43 (HST), 86 and 87 would be winners in my book. Especially it seems Hornby going down lot of their attention to the TT 120 scale over OO Scale. Also please do re-runs of please models as well - so punters down the line can own them, if at time they didn't have the $$, not aware of your models (A/Scale) or were not in the venture of Model OO Trains
Would love to see the Caledonian McIntosh '439' class being produced for 4mm. No.419, currently in traffic at Bo'ness, is the flagship loco of the Scottish RPS.
Mk 5s are a bit too modern for me, but go for it if you reckon the demand is there.
We spoke on Friday at the Rails event and I suggested the Class 13 as the next Rails exclusive, as something local to the area. Going on from that, this could lead to yourselves creating the class 08 (09 etc), with working lights, something the other manufacturers have yet to do. Add to this some great sound files I think will make an exciting, and excellent model. This could then lead to another exciting rails exclusive of the class 08 with no. 08691 as 'Escafeld', which was the Sheffield station pilot for many years. Just a thought!
another run of mrk5s and mrk 2 coach
yes please more Mk5 TPE coaches please
Please… a BR Standard Class 3MT 2-6-0. They were like Starlings, almost beautiful but a little gawky, and the ONLY BR Standard Class NOBODY models!
It seems a while since the last pre-Grouping loco. So how about a LNWR Claughton, Prince of Wales/ Experiment or George V? Or a LNWR Cauliflower or Coal Engine?
