92003 - 'Beethoven'

Absolute next-level experience opening this up. The care and attention to detail is there to see — from the instructions to the prototype background — it really creates a moment when opening it for the first time.

The model doesn’t disappoint either. How it’s taken this long for a top-of-the-range model of the 92 is anyone’s guess. The lighting, servo pantographs and authentic sounds are an absolute joy to operate. The loco weighs a hefty amount too and operates flawlessly on my layout. If only I could justify getting more — but alas, I operate an ECML layout, so this will be making rare diversionary appearances 🙂

EVERY aspect of this purchase was PERFECT! The presentation packaging is world-class QUALITY and the Locomotive itself is just outstanding! There were zero problems with this purchase and the Locomotive worked perfectly straight away, Thankyou Accurascale.

Love the class 92s. This one is no exception. Ran lovely straight from the box

Fantastic model and service

This my 2nd 92 fantastic model can’t wait for batch two with EPS liveries

This model is so stunning it prompted me to buy another Accurascale 92 Charles Dickens. Probably the finest 00 electric model ever produced

The first thing about this model is the packaging - very nice stout box with the model safely held in place inside. Once on the rails, the model really looks the part with very good detailing, and the oh so smooth operation of the pantograph raising is a joy to behold. I opted for the sound fitted version, and it does sound really good. Straight out of the box, the loco ran very smoothly and is powerful. All in all I’m very pleased with this purchase, which for the price point is good value for money.

There's no way you'll be unhappy with this model.

Great running from straight out of the box and such a smooth performer.

Such a great step up from the previous offerings of the 00's and well worth the wait !!

Brilliant model just what you expect from this company.

I’m not normally a modern image enthusiast but this is a step above anything else out there, amazing straight out of the box!

Class 92 in rail freight grey. This maybe a bit of a bland livery against some of the others they carried but is still very nicely applied.

This is a excellent Class 92 everything about it is awesome, the features working pantographs, sound is brilliant, I highly recommend this model.

I have now purchased 2 Accurascale Deltics, 1 class 92 (92003) plus another version on the way.
Needless to say, all of these models are superb and deserve a 5 star rating from me.

What en excellent model, smooth and quiet running , the attention to detail puts other manufacturers way behind. The sound is the best I have heard and is the top of its game
I received the model 11/1/23 direct from Accurascale and tested on a rolling road on Dcc. The only issue was that one pantograph was slow to raise and lower, this has got worse with the pantograph stuck in the raised position only moving a couple of mm up or down. I contacted Accurascale on 16/2/22 for advice and asked to run tests which didn't resolve the issue. Further to this I was asked to return the model for repair and am still waiting for my return to be accepted and for a returns label to be sent as of 19/1/23 bearing in mind this is a £280 model. While packing the loco for return all 4 bodyside grills have fallen off with little or no glue from the factory along with black piping under the bottom edge of the bodyshell. This review is not intended to mark this model down in any way as it is a really good model. Probably Ive had the luck of the draw with the faults but in honesty this should not happen with the price of the model, but I hope to have it repaired and returned for enjoyment on my layout Middlebrook 00.

Well, where do you begin with this amazing model? Everything about it is spot on. The look, the detailing, the pantographs, the running quality, the packaging is all beyond excellent. If only all models were made this way. Well done Accurascale for another amazing product following on from the Deltic. Roll on the Class 89

Utterly stunning, looks, runs and sounds incredible. Was interested in the chunnel rolling stock back in the 90s so it's pretty special getting such a high (if not highest) end model. Just need a mind blowing Eurostar for it to pull 😆

The P word has been used alot about this 92, absolutely fair, perfect. Nice one Accurascale

92003 appeared to be perfect. Runs like a dream therefore possibly better or at least more reliable than the real thing. At first look both pan heads looked squint and indeed both just fell off. However without too much difficulty they popped back into place. It's now pretty well as expected , perfect.

Absolutely great loco fantastic detail, unbelievable weight, runs so quiet on the track can't get enough of it, brought another the next day, you have raised the bar on model locomotives, let's hope other model manufacturers take note and keep the price realistic as well.

A fantastic model only reason that I gave three stars was due to certain parts having become detached in packaging and one pantograph bent when raised, managed to tease this into correct shape.

I read the reviews and it is as good as claimed. Once I got to grips with the use of the pantographs, everything ran perfectly. Looks great, sounds great and I look forward to receiving my next Accurascale model. My customer experience was good, with quick response.

Class 92 92003 Beethoven in rail freight livery really captures the character of the class 92.

This is by far the best electric locomotive available on the market, full of detail and separately fitted parts. The sound from the loco is amazing. Keep up the excellent work Accurascale

An absolutely great locomotive packed with details. Highly recommended. Well done Accurascale.

As I unpacked the model I was amazed by the attention to detail on the roof and bogies. As soon as it was on the track I couldn’t wait to try out all of the moving parts and lighting effects. You really do need DCC to appreciate just how much the model is capable of.

Very nice loco, shame you don’t answer your emails, sent you 2 about the loco.
Pity it has not been a good experience for me

Best loco I have ever brought.

A totally sublime model in every way.

I have been looking forward to this coming out since I first heard about it and I’m so happy to have got one. The overall details are above and beyond anything I’ve seen before.

The price for such a high detailed model like was incredible for both the DCC ready and digital sound fitted. For a high quality sound fitted model, I would’ve expected it to be £300 or more but for £230 minus VAT is unbelievable. I can see now why this model has been selling like hot cakes!

Great model, great price and great company who is sure to go from strength to strength. I’ll certainly be coming back to them in the new year for some more of their incredible models.

An amazing model that has set a new high standard in ready to run 00 gauge locomotives
