Accurascale & Bachmann - Comparing the Europheonix/Rail Operations Group Class 37 Models

[@Valleys56xx]

I'd be pleased to have either of those two beauties, but I'm reasonably happy with my Lima 37s - not too bad from two foot away. Got a Transrail logo'ed dutch engineer livery one at the Bristol show last weekend for buttons (27 quid) and they can be CD motored and DCC fitted for not a great deal, for folks on a limited budget. Anyway, good comparison, thx Jason :)

I can't say that the grill was loose on mine; dare say I'd have noticed. A light run of glue to repair? The horn set-up on them differ. Never noticed that. Nice comparison video. Cheers!

Grill is all sorted

[@hermitageroad4713]

Great video jason

[@paulmoore6345]

The thing that stands out to me is the Bachmann one has a separate nose end piece that creates another seam that is not there on the accurascale loco or the real thing . The horns on the on the split box locos are in the nose behind the two grills. I would say that the glazing on the accurascale 37 is very fine indeed

Thankyou excellent vid

[@BarnabasJunction]

Glad you enjoyed it

One buffer is missing at your model ! My advice: take both ! Greetings from Germany!

[@BarnabasJunction]

Been waiting for comments saying that LOL Oddly i only noticed it missing myself when watching it back after uploading to here.

[@tonyrobinson362]

All my locos are detailed because I only run a TMD layout, Tip try long nosed pliers work a treat with a spot of super glue less is more in the glue department. Must admit I prefer bachmann 37s

[@BarnabasJunction]

Thanks for the tips!

For me it would be Vitrains as non Chinese manufactured.

[@tonyrobinson362]

Why didnt you dust down the bachmann needs some tlc.

[@BarnabasJunction]

@@tonyrobinson362 dust doesn't make it any better or worse. My bachmann model is heavily used on the layout, I don't put it away in its box when I've finished playing with it, it's heavily used and spends 99% of it life on the layout.

giant box

Both Chinese engineering and manufacturing at there most inexpensive .
