I am delighted with my 3 sets of NCB Brodsworth hoppers. The packaging is first class, but you need to take great care unboxing them, due to the delicate nature of the highly detailed wagons. The quality and detail of the wagons is superb. A nice surprise was the pack of 3 link couplings provided with each set. I am now saving up for some more wagons. 👍👍😁
Expanding my fleet of NCB wagons. Love these P7 hoppers. Shame there is no coal load available, had to fudge it.
Accurascale really have the neck to impress modellers with their rolling stock. This time around with this P7 Era 7 NCB Black with White Planks - Brodsworth triple wagon pack. The painted body is clean, and the printing of the text is sharp. The detailing of the wagons themselves is exquisite as one would expect from Accurascale. We have fine handrails, break gear, axle boxes, corner steps, sprung buffers, and internal structural content, and under bottom mouldings. The planking and rivet detailing are moulded at a perfect depth. Exceptional Quality Wagons Accurascale.
Great model. Livery and fine detail well executed.
Superbly detailed. Don’t miss the one grey end! Run smoothly over points. Do I fit coal loads and lose sight of the internal detail?
