Fitting your Class 66 Crew

Richard Watson

Take your new Accurascale Class 66 up a notch by adding one of our ModelU Crew packs! Using the simple guide below, we'll show you how quickly and easily adding a crew to your locomotive is. Follow the step-by-steps below to really enhance your Shed, all you'll need is one of our Class 66 driver packs and some glue. Step one: Unclip the body from the four positions shown. Step two: With the body removed, turn it upside down and gently pulling the body outwards will release the cab.  Step three: With the Cab removed, now would be a good time to also consider adding the fully detailed Valance/Bufferbeam. See our guide here: https://www.accurascale.com/blogs/lets-get-involved/fitting-your-class-66-front-valance-bufferbeam Step four: Place your pre-sized crew into the location of choice using an adhesive such as PVA on the cab seats.  Step five: Allow glue to dry before replacing the body.  Step six: Replace the cab into the body, making sure the spigots find their securing holes. When returning the body to the chassis be careful of the hanging air pipes.  With the body back on, you're now free to enjoy your detailed Accurascale Class 66 on your layout.  Browse our full range of Class 66s right here: https://www.accurascale.com/collections/class-66
