Klas 31 - 31110

Stunning model and very accurate representation of the real thing

My first Accurascale 31, really pleased with its performance, later upgraded to sound

My first Class 31 Accurascale order, very pleased with the performance

This is a beautifully detailed Class 31, but it is only marginally better than the Hornby model in one or two areas. With discounted Hornby Class 31s available, the difference is difficult to justify.
My biggest disappointment is the weight. It feels about the same weight as the Hornby model and lacks the reassuringly substantial feel of Accurascale’s excellent Class 60 and Class 66. I prefer heavier locomotives, both for their feel and pulling power, so this was a letdown.
The DCC-ready version also presents a compromise. An HM7000 installation does not provide all the lighting features I want through my ESU ECoS system, pushing me towards the more expensive dedicated LokSound decoder.
I have bought several more because I want to build my Class 31 collection, but despite the excellent detailing, this model only earns three stars.

Although the class 31’s were rare here in Scotland, they occasionally found their way to Edinburgh Waverley and Glasgow Central during the 70’s and early 80’s.. So I just had to have one or three these. Accurascale have captured the look of these skinhead 31’s perfectly, the detail and paint is amazing too. Just need to get a sound decoder for it as my other 2 are sound fitted and sound awesome…..

It looks good, the livery application is pretty much perfect and the sound is excellent. The detail in the bogies, grilles and roof hatches is superb. Look forward to more in the future.

Great looking model, sounds great & the detail is superb. Takes me back to being on the footplate.

I bought 31110 on an impulse, as I had two others on order. What a lovely model indeed. Drives really well and the sound is amazing. Very high fidelity detailing too, just gorgeous to look at.

Accurascales models get better and better with every release

Another quality Class 31 model from Accurascale, stunning livery and detail to this model, runs perfectly and sounds amazing, looks the part at Wickfield lane Junction

Very pleased with my class 31, the usual very crisp detailing and finish. I think the fan should work on DC but it doesn’t seem to? Crew fitted and we’re off!

Overall a great model with excellent sound however it didn't work on factory dcc setting until I programed the decoder
( video review on my YouTube channel)and just noticed when fitting the figures in the cab that there's a chair missing. Shipment box was too big and the model had room to move in transit.

Setting a new standard is difficult, but Accurascale seemed to have achieved it yet again. Now the best class 31 you can get.

One of my favourite liveries for this locomotive, just looks great and the sound is brilliant well done accurascale

This one is number 2 of 3 I now own and I’m seriously running out of superlatives for team Accurascale!!

Absolutely stunning in every way, the detailing is top drawer, running characteristics are spot on and the livery application is next level!!

Roll on the next batch being announced!!

An excellent model that looks striking in these colours. My only criticism is that there are no engine room lights. For me personally I would have preferred these to split tail-lights.

Childhood memories of this class in this livery. Just had to have it !

Superb.

This is one of those rare models you can happily run up and down a test track for hours, exploring the functions and fine tuning a couple of CVs. Get your orders in for run 2 pdq - with this quality they won't be around for long. Simply superb.

Superb looking loco in the Original Railfreight Livery which in my opinion has been sadly lacking in OO Gauge let's have some more please. This one is for renumbering to 31125 as I already have 31110.

If 31s are your thing, this is perfect. I already owned three if the first batch, this being the only non-blue model I had ordered, so I knew what to expect. However, their are subtle improvements (no holes in the bogies for example) and this livery just suits the 31.

Superb loco. Runs great with all details intact. Thanks.

Finely detailed model with exquisite livery application and no details loose in the box. Extremely smooth runner with characteristic slow acceleration of the prototype, enhanced by the fantastic sound project. Would be useful to have easily swappable buffer beams with pre-fitted pipes - perhaps an improvement for a future release?

This class 31 puts my Hornby trio to shame, detail and finnish are superb and an excellent runner 10 out of 10

Absolutely worth the wait! Hands down model of the year…

Didn’t receive it you cancelled my order and kept my deposit
