Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 14" in Caledonia Works gevoerd grijs - ongenummerd

Fabulous loco, great detail, fantastic control at low speed, has plently of power for its size, Fitting the chip is a little fiddly.

I own two of these now and they never fail to win me over. Runs smoothly, looks superb, and the Caledonia Works grey look Splendid! All I need now is to get a DCC decoder so I can have a Barclay Double Header. Now to try not to but a third one 😂.

Lovely small locomotive and ideal for smaller layouts. Runs very well and looks the part would benefit from some light weathering to help pick some of the fine detail. Excellent price for a high quality product that we have come to expect. Very happy.

An excellent model but it did have the motor mount issue. I contacted Accurascale and they pointed me in the direction of a handy guide to solve the issue and it now works fine.

This truly is beautiful model, it runs well and the amount of detail and quality is awesome . I chose the Caledonian livery version as I had seen this loco in March this year at the Mid Suffolk Railway, and loved the grey with the white lining.

I ordered this as I spent time working on the real one at the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway this year. This model is lovely. A fantastic runner, surprisingly heavy, great detail and beautiful decoration. I really recommend.

A very detailed model, with a surprisingly good weight to it and excellent livery application.
Well done Accurascale !!

Fantastic 0-4-0, highly recommended

Lovely little runner and a gorgeous livery, very happy with my model and always appreciate any mechanical updates that Accurascale offer to their customers.

Cracking little loco. Looks and operates well on my current layout.
Wonder if I should have a couple more and build a new layout?

Hi accurascale i found this little locomotive very nice ran very well out of the box. A little tricky with the decoder put fitted ok running very well thanks again accurascale keep up the good work 👏

Awesome little steam locomotive, runs well and looks amazing

Beautifully detailed model,

it has got the loose motor problem, and after speaking to Accurascale I was able to rectify it,

runs beautifully smooth, Thank you

As always, what a great little engine Accurascale have produced!
Living close to Beamish I thought it would be fitting to get the little Engine which resides there, a great addition to the layout!

Unboxing revealed some excellent detailing. Nicely weighted.
Runs nicely across almost all my track, stay alive would just give it the edge.
Installing the decoder was not clear, website support pages nearly got there, just one detail missing in regard to the orientation of the pub. The support page also pointed out that there was a second set of lugs from braking unit that needed to be set aside.

Great loco! So glad I managed to get my hands on one finally! This is my first accurascale loco, it’s the first of many to come!

Absolutely beautiful model - after purchasing a blue one originally I couldn't resist getting another, equally happy with this one also! Well done Accurascale!

Beautiful little engine, with great detail for its age of design.
Runs exceptionally smoothly and quiet, with a good speed range.

This little beauty packs huge detail and charm, really happy with the loco and all its character. Well done accurascale!

I was really excited for this model. Having seen the real Caledonia Works engine at Beamish Museum, I had placed an order with Hattons and was relieved to hear that Accurascale was continuing production. I had also heard excellent things about Accurascale's quality, detailing and performance, and was looking forward to seeing what an Accurascale locomotive could do.
The initial first impression was a good one, as although the box was comically huge for such a small loco, the amount of foam and tightness of the plastic clam shell meant that the model seemed to have been well protected during transit. The model itself was also beautifully presented, with loads of tiny fine details, a beautifully rendered livery and a lot of weight for such a small loco.
However, putting it on the track and trying to run it in completely ruined this initial first impression. The model didn’t work on arrival. The tabs holding the motor in have insufficient retention, so within the first few seconds of running, the worm drive stopped meshing with the gears completely. I contacted Accurascale about this, only to be directed to a page on the website informing me how to fix the model myself. The fiddly process of dismantling the model to fix this was a nightmare, as you actually have to disengage several detailed parts and prevent them from bending and snapping in order to reach the mechanism. I have problems with hand eye coordination too, so this added to the frustration of having to repair a brand new model myself when this issue should have been noticed during production and testing.
Eventually, I re-engaged the worm drive with the gears and resumed running in. Unfortunately, the model continued to dissapoint as it turned out there was a fault with the coupling rods contacting the running board. In the end, I completely gave up and sent this model back for a replacement that I am now waiting for.
This has been a really dissapointing model, as it failed to perform the basic requirement of, well, performing. I won't deny that it looks wonderful, but unfortunately the actual internals of the model are nowhere near the same level of quality, and good looks are no substitute for poor design. A really underwhelming model, and an extremely dissapointing first impression from Accurascale.

Had a couple from Hattons, had to get another, just as good and no issues running it, good job

This is my second accurascale Barclay. Just couldn't say no after i got the first 1. Fantastic runner and well detailed.

It's quite a nice little loco runs well & overall is very well done. I think the body removal is a bit tight & I had some issues with the slide bars, but aside from a few little things overall a solid item.

a little handy loco for small layouts. The print are splendid and the paintjob good. Only the fitting of a decoder are a challenge with the pipes and other things who are very fragile. I have used a ESU Lokpilot and worked fine. Its a Hattons legacy and have no flickering lights in the cab.

Very nice loco . Great detail amazing livery ,runs very smoothly.
Strong co strut ion and fantastic packaging.
No chance of damage in transit. Accurascale should be congratulated on this model and bode well for future releases
