D9000 - BR Grøn m/kantspor (VXC)

Truly catches the power and presence of the prototype

D9000 bringing back memories of summer trips to Ramsgate! Generally a fine model, only issues were some bits missing/fallen off (support sorted these promptly). There was a lighting issue but again was sorted promptly. Issues can occur but what counts is how well and quickly they are resolved!

A great running model and has a fantastic amount of detail. Upgraded to DCC sound which was definitely worth doing!

Beautiful, smooth runner, the detail and quality are unbelievable, very happy with my purchase.

What can I say but it’s probably the best model locomotive ever runs so smoothly and looks amazing 🤩

Having owned 2 of the original release locos I was eager to get my hands on the improved run 2 version and she didn’t disappoint!!

Subtle improvements to an allready stunning model really shows that Accurascale are truly ontop of their game!!

Beautiful livery application and super smooth silent running as standard.

They make it seem almost easy now this model making lark!!

Again Accurascale have knocked this outta the park! Incredible model. Top notch detail and performance. Absolutely stunning! Thank you!!

I know it was nearly a year ago it was released but I'm so pleased I have the model, well worth the wait. Very impressed with the details such as the pipework, lighting and upon test run, it ran well.

Even the packaging itself is a piece of art, I mean it's huge but it's well padded and comes with an array of instructions, etched nameplates and even a replica carriage label from the old Virgin Cross Country services that ran down to Ramsgate!

This model is absolutely perfect for anyone who wants to model the early privatisation era and it pairs perfectly with the both old & new Bachmann/Hornby Mk2s.

Incredible model. Very powerful, heavy and highly detailed. Would buy another.

Up to the exacting standards one comes to expect from AS. Sits nicely at the helm of my XC mk2’s.

I've long sought after an accurate recreation of D9000 in late '90s condition and this is excellent - the livery is beautifully rendered, and the model looks great with the high-intensity headlight on the front, it's a strong, powerful and smooth runner - just perfect for hauling those Virgin CrossCountry specials!

Wonderful detail, incredible runner, and VERY heavy. A 5 starer for me.

My fourth Accurascale Deltic - as always, outstanding in all respects - what more can I say!!!

Superb model with notable improvements over the 1st release. Accurascale have really captured the bulk and subtle styling of the Deltic. The way the windscreens have been modelled is particularly noteworthy. The refinements made to the second run, including the revised fitment of the handbrake chains and extra space for the speaker are greatly appreciated. I have fitted a decoder and speaker from a batch 1 loco and can confirm that there is no vibration. I’ve covered over the white LED intended for the wipac light clusters and dimmed the headlights and all works perfectly. I travelled behind D9000 following its return to mainline working in 1997, so this model was a must have and really looks the part attached to a rake of Intercity/Virgin Mk2s. Brilliant!

excellent loco

great detail

smooth powerful runner

lovely loco, no missing bits or bits dropped off like run 1, chains are much better. Generally a step up from run 1. very very happy

Lovely model.
CHAINS !
Ridiculous!
Would rather have them moulded than supplying them in the added detail bag.
I actually thought you had missed them off my model ??
Couldn’t believe when I spotted them in the bag😳

Ordered this in April and finally got my hands on it in December and it was well worth the wait absolutely stunning model and excellent performance

Amazing!

This second run features some.cosmetic improvements including nose top bolts missing from the first batch. The engine room window glazing also look to have been retooled to properly fit in the bodyside openings, and the new chain arrangements, while fiddly make initial sound/crew fitting and future servicing much easier. A great refinement to an already flagship product.
Can we hope for rotating fans next time round?

Absolutely outstanding model, can pull mountains. It absolutely storms round my layout and climbs the gradients without needing a banking loco. 100% recommend to anyone.

Absolutely fantastic, well worth the wait, excellent service

After a lengthy wait the model finally arrived just before Christmas. It was everything I expected it to be and I was very pleased with my purchase.
However, there was a slight "sting in the tail". The courier informed me that VAT and other ancilliary charges applied and I therefore owed an additional €45.00.
I thought the original pre-order price included VAT but, apparently, not. I am not sure if Accurascale mentioned that VAT would be in addition but if they did, I missed it.

Amazing model, top quality and incredible value Long wait to get it

Simply stunning model you guys have set the benchmark again looking forward to 2025

Managed to get this loco and I'm not disappointed. Looks fabulous and runs really well also.
It looks just like I remember pulling a set of Virgin Cross Country coaches when it is running on my layout.

Beautiful model that runs very well with incredible detail. Also amazingly heavy and well built.

Yet another stunning loco from Accurascale. Arrived safe and sound and is a beautiful rendition of the real thing.
