Gordon Highlander

This was just one of a number of Deltics that I ordered. It looks and sounds absolutely amazing, and I'm sure with the passage of time the quality will just keep getting better. Love running these locomotives on my layout. Brilliant job guys and keep up the good work.

An absolutely beautiful loco in livery application and fine details. Amazing to think how little this costs compared to the "big boys" in the model railway manufacturers.

Class 55 Gordon Highlander

My first impression is that the Deltic is good value value for money when compared to other models on the market. The finely detailed model itself is of a very high quality. The only downside to this model was that the chains on one of the bogies had become detached. Sound is excellent as is it's overall running performance. Keep up the good work guys!

A beautiful locomotive with lots of features

I'm so pleased that I bought this locomotive as it has very good paintwork, cab lights and highly detailed bufferbeam pipeworks. Also the sound quality is very good on top of good pulling power. The Accurascale crew complements with this locomotive. I don't have problem with this loco running over the points!

DELTIC 9016 Gordon Highlander

Just received this model at the 3rd time of asking as it was sold out and i missed the 2nd chance for re purchase.
The model is stunning, Runs very smooth and the detail is second to none.
Only criticism i have is the packaging. For 1 loco the box was massive, enough for probably 5 or 6 locos and very little packing inside so the actual loco box was flying around in there.

Simply Stunning!

A real triumph of miniature engineering. So much weight without compromising the details gives this a real presence on the track. The sounds are just right and really capture the prototype well.

The Ultimate Deltic.

The long wait is over and the Class 55 Deltic from Accurascale does not disappoint with its many features or to one's eye. The printing of the livery is top notch with clean lines all around on my version of this locomotive The Gordon Highlander within its Purple box (all others are the usual black). The detail of things like the bogie chains is a nice touch and many other little additional parts are added. One just needs to peep through the driver's side cab window to see a lit dashboard panel for starters. Accurascale has made this model with the highest spec's seen on any model. This Deltic engine to date, and by any manufacturer must be the master locomotive version of this Class 55.

I was not sure about the colour of the Engine, however once it arrived it is a truly beautiful object.
My only slight niggle is the usual handbreak chains problem on the Class 55, perhaps a note at the top of the box with a warning on how to handle the model.
The only word to describe the whole package is outstanding.
How can you produce such a detailed model when the boys by the sea seem to remove features and charge more.
