New Accurascale Exclusive - NCB HTV Internal User Pack

New Accurascale Exclusive - NCB HTV Internal User Pack

It's a busy week here at Accurascale. One that is laden with wagons too, as we announced our new HYA launch on Monday, and now we bring you news of the first of two Accurascale Exclusives wagon packs in the form of our HTV wagons in a triple NCB Internal User Pack livery of green and grey! 

Prototype

The widespread withdrawal of 21t hoppers from the mainline network led to many being repurposed by BR or sold on to private companies for internal use. One such operator was the National Coal board who had a coal disposal site and washery at Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen, South Wales. The railhead was operated by Powell Duffryn Coal Preparation, and they required a fleet of internal user wagons for the transfer of coal around the site.

During the early 1990s this fleet, made up from redundant HTV’s and HEA’s received the striking green and grey livery seen on our models. These wagons would see use right through the decade until the site was mothballed in 1999.

The Model


Each wagon features a wealth of separately applied detail, from handrails on the diecast chassis and hopper ends to the intricate brake gear and hopper operating mechanism underneath, all museum quality detail and prototypical accuracy modellers now come to expect from our wagons and which is now our standard specification.

As well as a diecast chassis with full hopper detail, each wagon rides on 26mm axles, which are 2mm in diameter, with pin points in brass bearing cups for ultimate smooth performance and ease of conversion to finescale tolerances.



With the wagons announced later in development to curb waiting times, we're already at decoration stage and we are about to begin production of these wagons in the coming weeks. Delivery of the models to customers is currently estimated at Q3 2025. Both wagon packs will be a one off, limited production run in special presentation packaging like all models in the Accurascale Exclusives range.



Each pack is priced at £99.95 and we're operating their usual 10% off when you buy two packs or more, along with a new offer of 15% when you buy 5 or more packs direct from our website. That means each wagon just costs £27.47 when you factor in loyalty points rewards and postage and packaging being free! They can of course be mixed with other HTO/HTV wagon packs in the launch range to get these discounts.
