Class 37 - BR Green w/full yellow ends - D6956 - DCC Sound Fitted

Good looking class 37, second class 37 I’ve bought

I love class 37's since riding around with my dad in the 70's i never go to go on this one but it is a wonderful machine. It has so many hide gems of detail, it took till now to do the review. From the desk lighting to sound quality it's amazing and i can't wait for next years models.

Best so far in my opinion and I have many 37s. Went for the sound fitted model and it really does sound like the real thing. Cheers.

Outstanding details by far the best class 37 i have the sound is really good.

Great looking and performing loco

First taking out of box was the weight of the loco the look and the running detail very good the sound was very impressive an excellent job all round and forty to fifty pounds cheaper than other competitors keep up the good work

Didn’t work properly when first powered up (DCC). Seems to be ok know but it remains unclear what functions, like desk light, I should expect. The documentation doesn’t make it clear.

Brilliant model from Accurascale. Absolute wealth of detail for the most part perfectly fitted (aside from one bent lamp iron). Model ran flawlessly and I am very impressed with the speaker fitted, put my other sound locos to shame. Snazzy packaging that kept loco safe, including the outer packaging which was fully recyclable, which I love. Masses of information provided with the model which I enjoyed reading. Absolute beauty, looking forward to future releases.

I had long awaited this model and believed this to be the ultimate class 37. On arrival I was not disappointed. Heavy and loaded with detail. However, there were a couple of hiccups. Firstly, on start up the sound would suddenly cut out. Usually a second attempt to start was all that was required. I would've said dirty track, but the engine ran without the sound. My second issue was on a passing loop, approaching a standard Hornby turn-out. At slow speed it toppled on its side! It continued to do so time after time , so I can only run this engine on the main loop (third radius). I put this down to poor track work - except that all other locos, including the Bachmann Class 37 take this point with no issue. I did some research on Youtube, and discovered there were other people similarly affected. Sadly, I will not be extending my fleet of Accurascale 37's, and I now have concerns for the Class 55, 31 and Class 50 I have on pre-order. I am not a technical person, and believe a model of this quality should work properly straight out of the box. I do not involve myself with 'wheel tolerances' or changing CV's just to get the standard sound effects. Still it is a nice model, and that is why I have given 4 stars instead of 3.

Great loco, great service, delivered on time, great price

another excellent quality unit, thankyou

A fantastic looking model overall and runs very smoothly. The only issue I have is the headcode lighting. Unfortunately there are only leds lighting up the outer characters not the centre ones which lets down the overall model slightly hence 4 stars

Outstanding detail and finish. Accurascale keep their standards very high .

I was highly delighted with my model of D6956. It was perfect and ran faultlessly strait out of the box and the price was good to. Keep up the good work and look forward to my next purchase.

Sound is an improvement on the first 2 models which needed adjustment to stop the decoder cutting out. Usual fine detail as we have come to expect from Accurascale

Great model. Weighty with a very nice look to it ,received together with D6600 and D6992 all together in one larger box with box ends which made for a snug fit and stopped them rattling around.

Delighted with my new Class 37 - by far the best model I have seen of the class. The factory-fitted sound chip and speaker complement its appearance, better than anything I've got in any other of my DCC sound locos

Another great Loco from Accurascale. Well done.

A great loco, very smooth runner, sound is great

Another Excellent addition to my collection from Accurascale .keep them coming
