Klasse 31 – 31602 Chimaera Fragonset – DCC Sound

Beatifully finished in the black Fragonset livery, the fine lining is clearly printed along with the excellent printing of the Fragonset logo. Finally, the addition of the excellent DCC sound file played through the accurathrash system makes this a fantastric model.

Yet another fantastic model I have two of these 31s and they are brilliant more can I say I also bought a class 30 as well and that is really good? 10/10.

This is a stunning model. I have bought two of these. They both have been tested and worked very well. The sound he’s amazing another 10 out of 10.

Another exquisite addition to the collection. Always a joy to open and admire when they arrive. My collection may be bordering on a problem but Accurascale keep producing these works of art!
Thank you to the team.

Superb model, sleek crisply applied livery, the model is a smooth and effortless runner, feels really solid and will pull a good long train too, perfection in miniature!

I love the Fragonset livery and when Accurascale announced a 31 in the said livery it was a must have.
Out of the box it looks stunning and on the track it ran nicely with any running in although I did find running with the non fan end first worked better on my tighter curves.
Sound and lighting was very good and with the addition of crew this will be a great addition to my Fragonset collection .

Absolutely lovely loco, sound is brilliant and runs so smooth pairs up brilliantly with mk2 virgin coaches. Will definatly be ordering some more accurscale products.

What a beauty to look at but after a few runs the loco developed a major fault.
This will be my last Accurascale Class 31.
31602, Fragonset, a personal favorite from the Bletchley/Bedford runs 1999-2001 great times.
I am changing my review of this loco as it developed a motor fault and needed replacing but Accurascale trying to get in touch and many a failed attempt I was able to make contact to be told to go via the claims area on the website and struggled to chat only to a bot.
I managed to find an email address and after many exchange of emails I wan asked to send in some video's of the loco and full details as to what the problem was. It was finally agreed it was faulty and I would have to return the loco for exchange.
During the returns setting up I again had to give full reason as to why it's being returned. It's faulty and already said this! So instead of exchange I opted for a full refund as their customer service is simply appalling.
The loco was received back to their Darlington repair office and a refund was set up on Tuesday 17th March 25 and this will take up to 10 days.. Working days....I have no idea. As of 26th March 26 still no refund.
I have lost all faith in Accurascale I have 8 MK5's, MK2 coaches and 7 loco's all on pre order and I am now ready to pull the plug and cancel these items.

One of my Class 89's developed a pantograph fault and had to be returned for a repair on it's return the loco was dead and zero power to the loco with the decoder being read as err (error) So again it's been returned to their Darlington office after they stated the loco was fully tested before being sent back, really? I am also £29 out of pocket with the promise of a credit / refund with nothing else. Once the loco is back I will attempt contact with them to request the refund of postage.

I've have lost my confidence with Accurascale they have zero customer service skills and I will thin carefully about any future products from them.

Been hoping for a Fragonset livery one since the 1st batch of 31s and I didn't have to wait long! This one will have to stick to test train workings though, at least until its ETH fitted partner becomes available ;)

Excellent runner. Superb sound. Great livery. Outstanding in every respect.

Super addition to the fleet. I have 5 Accurascale 31s now and they are all absolutely top notch. Just waiting for the next batch of Mk2s so it has something to pull!

Quality product, great packaging and fantastic detail and running.

Hi accurascale i am just delighted with this locomotive. The detail is outstanding running very smoothly and sounds wonderful. Well done accurascale. Kind regards Liam Burke

Can’t wait to recreate the old Wessex Trains, Friday only service between Brighton and Cardiff Central.

Excellent model I don’t have a bad thing to say about it

This is my fourth Class 31 & all of them are well deserving of the Model Of The Year title, absolutely incredible!

Good loco great runner and sound I have only given it 4 stars because upon arrival 3 pieces of detail were found loose in the packaging including the rear coupling a small orange component from the outer corner of the loco and a piece of piping from somewhere? all from the one end. I managed to rectify the coupling and component but not the pipe.

This is my 6th Class 31 from Accurascale and the first in the second release. I wanted this livery. High level of detail and good sound files. Very pleased.

The usual great quality and detail I've had from every Accurascale locomotive - the outer packaging wasn't great but the Accurascale packaging is so effective that this didn't matter. Everything looks great, sounds great and worked straight out of the box. Streets ahead of my previous Class 31 models.
