Class 31 - 31432

Great looking, well priced very highly detailed model that runs well straight from the box. Fantastic interior detail aswell. I feel the tension lock coupling is too large and doesn't match their other wagons-its nem so can be easily changed. The magnetic roof pannel is difficult to remove and I ended up scratching the paint off the handles while trying to open it. The fan doesn't work out of the box you need to set the dip switches first -I purched the DC version and have now fitted a sound decoder- still need to sort the functions out as the lights don't work correctly even when the dip switches are set as instructed-still work in progress. Get one while you can!

Beautiful brilliant model. Smooth running at all speeds. I haven’t taken the body off and I doubt I will after the nightmare I had with the Deltics. Hopefully things have improved since then. It’s perfect just the way it is. Running on analogue.

Excellent

I knew this locomotive was going to be good but it is exceptional. The detail, paint finish, working roof fan etc are superb and once you fit a crew or two in my case, it comes alive with the most realistic sound I have heard in a model locomotive. The cold start is brilliant and I love it. You can hear mine on U Tube on John Brown9092.

I held off purchase of a Class 31 many years ago and was delighted to see Accurascale announce these. Whilst there was plenty of choice of Class 31 models none of them were an ideal fit for me which still niggles me a bit but did not wish to miss having an example - this being the closest. Overall it is a superb looking model which captures the look of the real thing really well. As with all other Accurascale locomotives this one doesn't disappoint - can't wait for the 50's.

Very impressive model, it’s detail, sound and running qualities are fantastic.

The detail on 31432 is just exquisite, the shape looks spot on and it runs and sounds well. Only minor gripe is some parts displaced in transit - no. 2 end coupler, ETH jumper, second mans side windscreen wiper and speedo cable all knocked off, but in the packaging, so able to be refitted. Otherwise really pleased with the loco.

This must be a contender for model of the year, from its shape to the detail and separately fitted parts that make the model to the exemplary sounds. Definitely captures the real thing in miniature. Very impressed.

I've really enjoyed this model. It's my first sound fitted diesel and it's already making me want to get more

Excellent model best class 31 in oo by far. Great sound as well
