Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 14" 47 in NCB blau

This arrived quickly, and is a fantastic little locomotive. Runs nicely and looks fantastic!

Amazing little locomotive with a charming livery, great details and quite weighty, would recommend, thank you Accurascale :)
Arrived in Australia promptly and safe

Received this lovely little loco back in January. Impressive model for its size, mostly made of metal and a lovely livery. Highly recommend this one. Kamil

The livery application, though I purchased one of the simpler examples, is very good. The fit and finish is very good. The motor is very smooth and quiet in my example. The price point is very attractive for the quality. My only gripe is that the gearing is quite obviously too low. The rather excellent motor is compensating to give good slow speed running, but it could be world class with a higher ratio.

Unfortunately, the 1st one to arrive had a squashed cab which was somewhat confusing due to the amount of packing there is for these tiny models. But an email to Accurascale managed to get it sent back and a fresh one was sent out which arrived perfectly and runs well.

Great service ++

Very nice model, especially the cab detail. Unfortunately the first model had a detail part loose in the box and only managed to run for 5 minutes before the drive mechanism came loose. Replacement model sent was fine and runs without fault but not as good as the Dapol Hawthorn Leslie 0-4-0 that is heavier and runs much smoother. Overall though a nice model that looks good in NCB blue and has excellent cab detail.

The incredible attention to detail on this model is simply superb.
There is a charm about these industrial locos and Accurascale have paid tribute to these hard working locos in OO scale and this will add another level of detail to any modeller creating a typical industrial colliery scene.

I am pleased with this wee loco. I did have a bit of an issue with one nut coming loose on one of the coupling rods. Just keep an eye on these and tighten them up. They are 1.5mm nuts so search your toolbox for the smallest bit.

Didn’t work straight out the box, I had to remove the body which damaged the tiny gold pipework , once the body was off I noticed the motor wasn’t clipping into the cradle fully, I tweaked the motor cradle and it now appears to be working. Bought as a birthday present to myself so wasn’t thrilled about it not working but know enough to fix it.

Arrived Quickly. Runs well very good detail.

Very happy with the loco,it was a bit difficult to fit the crew that l purchased at the same time, had to take the body off to achieve this,but l got there in the end it did take quite some time, all good now.

Great runner very well detailed

I am highly delighted with my putchase, the locomotive is superb, very well made, as I was brought up in a Collery Village so I saw these Locomotives running back and forward, my Andrew Barclay in NCB is just what I required, well done Accurascale.

Nice model, smooth running and powerful for its size.

Multiple problems including not done up fully crank pin, rough packaging with harsh Paperballs no bubble wrap and a wild goose chase after a problematic email from accurascale

Loco bought to replace two Hattons Barclays I’d sold but now regret. Wanted an NCB one. Not convinced this is the correct colour for the original as some say it should be green. However it arrived complete and intact and runs well so all ok otherwise. Especially delighted with the crew which are excellent and nicely painted.
I will weather the loco in time but yes, I’d recommend. Only reason for the lost star rating is the questionable colour.

Not *quite* as detailed as some model locos but overall satisfactory in appearance.

Crawls excellently, good mechanism.

Lovely little loco, superbly finished. Now need some Scottish coal wagons to complement !

A nicely detailed loco at a good price, only spoilt by the incredibly difficult and fiddley removal and replacement of the plastic side pipes for fitting a decoder something which should have been designed better.

Great little locomotive

Ordered a model No.47 as I remember the actual loco residing in Thos Muir's scrapyard slowly sinking into the Fife mud. After ordering online, rather puzzled when an email arrived mentioning YuriExpress and a Hong Kong location - however within a week Royal Mail rang my bell to deliver the package in superb condition. On opening the package, I was very impressed with the way the model had been protected to minimise the risk of damage in transit. I then got granny's largest magnifying glass out and started a forensic-style inspection of the loco. Very pleased to report that I could find zero evidence of any manufacturing defects, cosmetic blemishes or general quality concerns. Very happy with the product box (including foam insert and the revised blister pack) and the level of protection that it evidently offers when being shipped from the other side of the world. This company (Accurascale) is setting incredibly high standards in the hobby. Note to readers - This model loco was bought directly online at list price using my own money and I'm seriously impressed. Will happily order further Accurascale products in the future.

The first loco was unfortunately significantly damaged so had to be returned under warranty a replacement was sorted but was to be shipped directly from China so took a 3-4 to arrive. The replacement was in better condition with no damage to the rear of the cab but two buffers were not installed correctly. DCC fitting the loco was a complete pain, there are parts that are not shown in the instructions that fouled the removal of the body. The DCC socket was not installed correctly and came loose which meant the body wouldn't go back on until it was fixed back in place. Once this was done I attempted to run the loco but the motor had shifted loose in the installation process and the body needed to be removed again. Whilst completing the installation for a second time one of the cylinders came loose as there was insufficient glue used to secure them. A shame as the loco looks fantastic but definitely improvements needed in the design and quality control. Knowing these issues I wouldn't have purchased the loco.

I havn't seen it yet

Where is it ?
Arrived ok monday 16th.
Test run on tuesday . Ran ok, bit jerky for a while then running smoothly with good control both directions.
After about 10/15 minutes it stopped running. Could hear a "whirring" noise from motor. Suspect drive either stripped or adrift. What do I do now ?
You could ring on 01904704990

My engine arrived today and it is superb - everything from presentation to running on the rails. The packaging was equally good.
This was a replacement for my original order but the customer service has been second to none. I have been kept informed of progress throughout the return process.

Im loving it so far
