37608

I had basically abandoned my UK modelling due to the poor quality from the major brands but am so glad I gave these guys a go with a Class 55 and now to be alive to enjoy my Accurascale Class 37 locos and this latest arrival has not disappointed. Sound models had sold out but I was online when the email arrived notifying me that a handful of non-sound models were available. Fortunately there was also stock of the ESU Loksound Class 37 DCC decoders, speaker and clips. Buying this way is a little more expensive but well worth it as the sound adds another dimension over silent running. Tried installing the accessories but just a little difficult so have left as supplied. I have also fitted Kadee NEM couplers which look so much better than the supplied tension lock couplers. Never dreamed that I would fall in love with modern image stuff but am well and truly hooked.

This is the first Accurascale Locomotive I’ve bought from them and I thought Bachmann were good, this loco is on another level.
It’s well weighted looks good, detailing is excellent , runs like a dream, excellent lighting and sound effects. The loco is powerful and has no problem pulling 16 Hattons FFA intermodal flats up my inclines were as I’d have to double head Bachman 37s. I know it’s a lot of money to pay for this class 37 but in my mind to pay for what you get and that’s accuracy, detail and well made model!

Over the moon with this new 37608 loco to arrive on my Banks road exhibition layout which was in this years model rail magazine.
Looking forward to running this loco along side my other super detailed accurascale 37 traction pool..
Top work from you accurascale!!
Congrats on your awards too👍👍

I've actually lost count of the number of Accurascale locos that I have at the moment, with more on preorder.
Suffice to say, 37608 is another quality purchase.
I think we're all getting used to the quality and attention to detail of Accurascale products.
That being said, everytime I open another box,the wow factor is still very prevalent.
The weight, paint and transfer application, sound quality and overall presentation is top notch for me. This is a manufacture who goes the extra mile, engaging with their customers through social media and email(rival manufacturers take note) and doing their best to address any issues. 😇.
I have a stable of around 170 locos at present and going forward, I can only see myself continuing to buy from Accurascale in preference to any other offerings.
Well done guys and congratulations.
Regards,
Darren.

I just love these models, five so far and plan for three more, excellent to finally have a 37 that I am proud to have a collection of them

Crisp detail, smooth running and looks so impressive, a clear 10/10! Will be adding more to the fleet in the future.

Having driven this locomotive in real life in the livery it is in I was very curious to see how well Accurascale could capture all of the intricacies of this heavily modified locomotive. I wasn’t disappointed, in fact I’m blown away by how close to the real thing it is. A brilliant model which goes perfectly with my other Class 37 Accurascale models of 37402 and 37425. These are the best that you could ever hope them to be.

At first, out the box, did nothing more than put on the track, change address of the decoder, found it ran well and silent, so ran her in each way and when done fitted the detail and crew. Beautiful. Sound is great, love the brake squeal operation. Now happily runs around my layout performing the duties ROG do in real life by pulling rakes of EMU/DMUs

This is the first Accurascale model I ordered as I wanted a Europhoenix 37, I hadn’t even heard of them before having been out of the hobby for a few years. I ordered it maybe 18 months ago, nowhere near as some people have waited, but it was worth the wait.

Straight out of the box which is beautifully presented the model just looks fantastic, the finish is superb and the detail is way above what I was used to 20+ years ago. I’ve only run it in, but it was as a smooth runner with no noises and able to pull away at speed step 1 out of 128, impressive stuff.

The sound is fantastic, try speed hold and then give it the beans. The only issue I have is the horns when it’s running, they are distorted but fine when sat with the engine off, I’ve seen that it maybe an issue with the sugar cube speaker, we’ll see how it goes.

I’d say buy one but obviously you can’t any longer, but I have a few of the others too and a couple of batch 2s on order. They are beautiful models at a fantastic price compared to some of the opposition.

Oh my this is proper above the bar
Crisp printed livery
Looks and sounds great
Impressive bit of kit

Was a long wait for this one, was it worth the wait. **** yes it was. Having both 37884 37800 from bachmann, I just had to order this one. Detail on this is just outstanding, and the sound.. out of this world. Looking forward to the realise of HN rail as I have that on pre order too. Definitely worth more then 5 stars, I'd give it 100. Many thanks

Superb model with great sound. Decoration really well applied. A weighty locomotive with very pleasing and authentic lighting. 5.95 out of 10! Only issue is with putting the brake function on F29 (NCE cab only goes as far as F28….. is there a fix in the offing Fran?

Another expectionly Class 37, lots of detail, runs smoothly, has a realistic sound, just like the ones I film every month.
Great packaging to protect the model in transit.
Will differently recommend and buy from again.

This one had a dry solder that made the flange squeal go all the time once on. Accurascale local stockist could not resolve it. So I had to send it to them all the way to UK. They repaired it, and sent it back, I got a voucher of the cost that I had to incur to send it to them. That for me is a real assurance when it comes to standing by the product. This review was about that, as enough has been said about the quality of the sound the the extremely delicate finish.

Nothing much to say about this except one of the best liveries available. All the usual refinements that Accurascael build into their models. Sublime.

Great loco stand out model

What an absolutely stunning looking model
Looks and sounds amazing, just like the real thing Love running these coaches on my layout, Another fantastic addition to my fleet.

This is one of the best ready to run class 37s that I own! The livery printing is top notch, including accurascales usual highly detailed class 37s! Must have...

It took a long time getting to me, but was worth the wait. Fantastic looking loco with sound. Thankyou Accurascale. 5 Stars

Great model

I never intended to purchase an Accurascale 37 in this livery - but when I saw it I just couldn't resist it!

Another super detailed loco from Accurascale now joins my two large layout Banks road exhibition layout and colmore traction.
Many thanks accurascale for listening to thd Uk modellers⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent loco

Bought for the husband he's says it's great
