Accurascale's latest ‘Accurascale Exclusive’ model, is a special edition model of Class 66 no 66769 in the GBRf “Prostate Cancer UK” livery. Proceeds from the sale of each model will be donated to Prostate Cancer UK as we aim to raise £10,000 for this worthy cause.

In 2021 GBRf ran its annual Charity railtour and 66769 was selected to wear a special livery and be an integral part of the tour. 

The locomotive was unveiled in its special black livery in connection with Prostate Cancer UK during August before becoming the flagship for the September tour. 66769 has settled back into squadron service with other members of the GBRf class 66 family and can be seen working all manner of trains across the length and breadth of the country, proudly still wearing its charity livery.

Great model but some problems.

This is a great model looks and runs great but has the same problem I had with the class 37 I do not have DCC control and find that DC models lights will only come on when the model is at full power.

Another superb locomotive from the Accurascale stable!
The details are superb, the running smooth and the haulage capacity superb.
I have four of the 66s and they are excellent.
Many thanks Team Accurascale - yet another winner.

66 769 Review

Well, Accurascale have done it again! Another superb model from the team.
Having given it the once over and run it in, I can find no fault with it. It runs beautifully, and looks good as well.
It's a shame I can't afford a few more!
The other good news in buying it is that I have contributed towards Prostate Cancer UK, a very worthy cause.

fitting fund raiser

the loco is an excellently presented fitting fund raiser for a very worthy charity, with a very worthy overall livery and model representation. Very heavy model that will doubtless pull and perform very well. Great contrast and accurate colours as far as I can see, not having seen the real one....

Another excellent loco as reviewed in my 66004 review. But to also donate to charity is such an excellent part of Accurascale. My dad has luckily beaten Prostate Cancer so donation to this charity means alot! Thank you Accurascale
