D9014 Das Regiment des Herzogs von Wellington

Great looking loco paint work crisp & sharp I have run it in and goes really smoothly
I hope the other Class 55 are as good

Fantastic loco! Absolutely beautiful! Runs like a dream. Love it!

Definitely worth the wait, the detail on this loco is stunning. The weight and its pulling power is awesome. When it comes to creating models accurascale certainly know how to do it, these guys are the best at what they do!

This locomotive is great. Finish is really good, sound is fantastic (really does sound like a Deltic). Running quality of the locomotive is superb. Only one tiny drawback, two ladders were lose in the box when I removed the loco. Could be stuck back on with a tiny bit of PVA glue.

Fabulous detail also runs very well

Absolutely brilliant model, with all detail parts arriving intact. Paintwork looks great, although could perhaps benefit from a more glossy sheen. Runs brilliantly with a great haulage capacity.

I bought the C55 Duke of Wellington for my father and law as a gift. It is perfect for his themed railway. The locomotive feels heavy and looks very detailed. I think the packaging is excellent, such a large cushioned box and the included documentation is very good. As someone who studies railway history and prototypical trains I know he will get much satisfaction from running it.

I have not run the locomotive as yet but I will say it is a beautiful model although two of the steps on the corners of the model have fallen off and I'm still waiting for the info sheets and packing that was missing from the box when the model arrived.

This model is outstanding, no damage, no minute parts broken, no paint bleed, and glue marks. Definitely the best detailed loco I have ever owned.

One of the best OO locomotives on the market. High level of detail and sound functions. The model does need to be handled with care as the details are delicate. Look forward to the forthcoming Class 37 and 92. Accurascale are fast becoming a market leader. Well done to all involved.

This model sets the standard for other manufacturers to try attain!

Superb model apart from various small parts falling off, and speaker vibration problems, all can be sorted out, can't wait for the class 92 and the class 37, they look brilliant.

Upon first opening the box, it became readily apparent how heavy this model is. That weight, combined with a powerful motor gives it an incredible tractive effort. It can haul every coach that I own without hesitation, even around my tiny setup which is still just a slightly expanded train set.

The detailing is incredibly realistic, yet also very sturdy. I am able to handle the model from most angles without any hint of things braking off. There is more detail, in fact, than I knew that there was to portray on the prototype.

The only negative thing I can find is that the motor doesn't quite have the torque to run smoothly at the lower speeds.

Overall, an excellent model at an excellent price, and well worth it for anybody that is a fan of the Deltics. I look forward to further locomotives from Accurascale.

After a long wait the Deltic arrived. And it was worth the wait. The model is fantastic and runs great straight out of the box. A few bits had fallen off in transit, but easily fixed. Very happy with the new Deltic.

A well thought out and engineered model. I'm looking forward to more locomotives I can "use" on my LMS/LNER layout.

The DELTIC`s in two tone green livery, such a fine style which elaborates the length versus height. Some say they look much better than BR blue versions, too slab sided.. Well, I happen to like both, and the day I took a double take when a Finsbury Park machine was spotted at Kings Cross was a wow moment, added a certain style to which even BR Chairman Peter Parker approved!! The person responsible soon found themselves in Scotlad, if memory serves me right, and brightenned up the West Highland Lines.. The rest makes for a very interesting period in BR traction livery styles.. The model is super in the BR two tone green, this the last one to wear it, the colours are very good comparisons to the real locomotives.. Keep these fine machines coming along Accurascale!!

The Accurascale Class 55 Deltic is the best OO model loco I have yet seen. It is incredibly well thought out and attention to detail of almost every element is unsurpassed. It is incredibly detailed, brilliantly decorated and smooth running. The sound project is also remarkable with the decoder offering no less than 30 functions, resulting in all possible sounds and drive options being catered for. Having purchased many Accurascale wagons prior to this, I expected near perfection and I wasn't disappointed. This has really raised the bar! I am now eagerly looking forward to seeing what the Classes 37 and 31 bring to the table .

Excellent model, sound is great, very smooth runner. Detailing is just awesome….

As I am in France and the locomotives are getting or are there in New Zealand this review is awaiting

Superb model in principle and looks, but very slightly let down plastic steps on body corners that break-off and my case one was missing. These should be etched and spares provided. Very grateful for the P4 replacement wheelsets that lift the model into an even higher league. Best 4mm scale ready to run diesel in plastic by miles! John Borkowski/S4

A solid runner with astonishing levels of detail. An instant favourite. Three weeks in and only one loose item. So impressed I ordered the the forthcoming 31 without hesitation.

Great attention to detail and a very smooth runner.
Value for money compared to other companies. Only negative thing, a couple of little pieces have fallen off when it was running but it's a simple thing to sort out.

This is the Loco of the year! The attention detail is second to none and Accurascale have pulled out all the stops!
Yes, I’ve experienced all the typical problems, speaker rattle, details coming off when packing or in transit, but nothing that could not be put right!
The value for money is superb!

Mine to had 2 steps broken free but that's no big deal, they can be reattached and when running on the layout can hardly be seen anyway. Superb value for the price, £160, what more can one honestly expect. I will definitely get another if/when Accurascale do a re-run.

Excellent model one or two bits in box need fitting back on couldn't get one with sound so ordered soundchip paid for still waiting

The Model was well packaged, it has performed well and run,s very Smooth with no troubles,That is on DC we are waiting for the DCC Decoder to arrive from yourselves.The only thing to happen 3 of the chains where hanging loose with 2 hooks missing.

The only minor criticism is that some of the fine detail like the chains on the Bogies a couple were not attached. They are very tricky putting back. Otherwise amazing model at the right price.
I would love one in Prototype colours.

It looks fantastic, beautiful detail and it sounds great. Nice and heavy, runs nice and smooth. Well pleased 😁😄
