Accucraft October News

Welcome to our October update.  As the weather in the UK starts to turn autumnal, thoughts may start to turn towards Christmas – it certainly has for the world’s shipping companies and the cost of freight continues to spiral upwards. Unfortunately this means we are unlikely to be able to ship any rolling stock before the New Year (in the hope that at that stage some normality starts to return to the market).  In consequence we have delayed the delivery of the new 1:32 scale Mk1 RMB coaches and a balancing number of Mk1 SKs and BSKs but have brought forward the production of the 1:19 Peckett 0-4-0ST.

New for 2022!  ‘Cranmore’ type Peckett 0-4-0ST in 1:19 Scale

We are delighted to share an initial image of the sample of the new 1:19 (16mm) scale Peckett.  The model is gauge-adjustable (32mm and 45mm), gas-fired and fitted with a water top up valve, water gauge with blow-down valve, lubricator and pressure gauge; constructed of stainless steel and etched brass with a copper boiler, the model will, as usual, be covered by our two-year warranty. The anticipated UK RRP is £1595.00 (for pre-orders, subject to the usual provisos), available Q1 2022 (or maybe sooner!). In response to customer requests, we will be supplying the model with two domes, the factory original (ogee) pattern and the simpler Australian type. The locomotive is fitted Accucraft chopper couplings. You can see full details here.

British Railways Mk1 RMB

We have recently received the first image of the sample RMB from the factory and very good it is too.  Great care has been paid to the roof detail in particular (one of the most obvious features in a garden railway setting).  It is likely that the SKs and BSKs being produced at the same time will be the last run we make of these, so, if you need to add them to your collection, a pre-order with your favoured retailer is advised.

Last call for the Southern Pacific P-8 4-6-2.

We will be shipping the Accucraft SP P-8 in October and it is now also be available as a kit.  This really is the last call if you would like to get one of these before Christmas!
