9016 - Porterbrook Purple - DCC Sound gemonteerd

Nice locomotive and good service

Stunning Model with excellent Sound.

Subtle improvements based on the already excellent first batch, demonstating the responsive nature of the AS team.
From what I can see the following improvements are present:
New bogie chain arrangements (I've not fitted these yet so can't comment on installation, but appreciated not having adrift in the box)
Adjusted bodyside window tooling such that the window frames are better interfaced with the bodyshell.
Reduced vibration (although I still sense a little at some revs, and will probably take volume down a touch)
New nose end bolt detail
Love the box artwork - I wish these would be available separately as they would make great layout room art, or indeed a 'print' of the box lid supplied with the model.

Still room for improvement:
The 'plated' quarterlights on the cab window is part of the glazing unit (understandable given the need to accommodate plated and glazed prototypes within the same body tooling. However the plated glazing need to be base-painted in black to avoid light bleed, with white (in this case, or livery colour on other models) finish then applied on top. As things stand it gets very translucent with cab lights on in a dark room.
Ditto the headcode window 'surround' which on this model is yellow, exhibits light bleed when on the prototype this is obviously solid metal or rubber.

Extremely pleased with the box, this is a work of art before we come to the model! 9016 is superb in every aspect, runs silky smooth, could not wish for more.

The best, Good value locomotives and wagons cannot fault . I am modern image this loco is from the past for me but I like the livery at the time and the Deltics the loco is really good from running finish and the sound.

Extremely pleased with the box, this is a work of art before we come to the model! 9016 is superb in every aspect, runs silky smooth, could not wish for more. One minor niggle is how to change head code numeral?
Thank you Accurascale cannot wait for the Class 31

This loco has amazing presence, it stands out like nothing I have seen before. It has the usual amazing detail and has some improvements on the original release such as the deeper set speaker and I think a better build quality but saying that the original release was their first loco and it did have some loose tiny bits in the box but is still an excellent loco.
I have never liked the Porterbrook 55 when I have seen it before but this one really caught my eye and I wasn't disappointed when it arrived, You put it on the track and it looks like a mountain and has a real heavy look to it as it should. The sound and lighting are both excellent as they always seem to with Accurascale. The only downside was that the box had none of the paperwork in it but a email to Accurascale and there should be some on its way.

I am very pleased with the Porterbrook Deltic

Looks great

Another Excellent model. Superb detail,realistic lights, realistic sound and runs extremely smoothly plus a very comprehensive detail pack. 10/10
