I love that shade of green on 5741. Would prefer it to be produced in that colour but will be happy when mine arrives regardless

yea.. seems like even some people in the non-thomas community want that livery, and they're just TEASING us with that decorated sample
@captaincool33293 күн бұрын
If you've read The Railway Series, you know Duck's number is 5741. Please, keep this livery option open- there's a queue lining up already for it and the lighter shade really *pops* , even if it's inauthentic, it looks good.

Dude, that 5741 is absolutely legendary. The lads at accurascale knew what they were doing with that 😉
@JDCalvert914 күн бұрын
These look gorgeous. My first ever locomotive was a Hornby 2721, and it's still my favourite even though it's 30 years old (and the tooling even older!). These are another level of detail!

Hi, that was a great video. I like all the various detail differences, and to have someone point these out is great. Thank you.

So glad I preordered, these look grand! (Slipped fingers and pressed the wrong key my arse :D Keep a livery like that for 5741 :D )
@HexAyed3 күн бұрын
As much as I'm of the mindset that goes "ugh, another kettle", I have to admit, the detail is amazing. I'd happily welcome more L&YR and L&NWR locomotives

Please let us purchase a 5741 in your "typo" Green paint scheme. It looks just like the real deal from The Railway Series. You know what you did and it worked. I would happily purchase it.

5741 is excellent as is, especially given its fictional history. I would highly recommend keeping it as is (or offering it to customers as is)

😅 typo my a***, Steve - funny how the typo coincidentally matches Duck's livery and number. Very funny, that. My money is on a "whoops, we accidentally ordered a small number of 5741 models in that colour, better make it an accurascale exclusive" announcement 😉 PS they all look lovely and I'd like one of each, please. Just need to sell a few possessions and internal organs...

Red number plates. I was always under the impression that red backed name/number plates were an unofficial 'trade mark' of Plymouth Laira shed. I know they are generally popular among Western fans though.

Perfect for a lunchtime watch when working from home. I'm not a fan of this class but I am tempted by the London Transport as I have some other locos and rolling stock. I think the fake coal looks awful though and it is a turn off.
