I have always liked RTC liveried locomotives and rolling stock/coaches. This offering from Accurascale doesn't disappoint at all. Absolutely superb coaches, well made and full of detail. Only slight issue is that no limited edition certificate was included but i have spoken to accurascale and apparently the factory didn't include them. They are being sent out at a later date. Other than that, really pleased.
