Class 55 'Deltic' - BR Blue - 55020 - Nimbus
DCC Sound Fitted

One of just three Deltics to never receive plated headcode boxes, 55020 is also notable for retaining the mountings for the cab roof horns worn during the early 1960s. Our model is based on its 1976 condition with standard-sized domino headcodes, although alternative smaller dots will be provided.

Damaged model returned for refund, yet to be received

The item was received on 12th February 2025; it was badly packed, with damaged paintwork and was also faulty (engine sound was not working on DC). It was returned to Accurascale the same day for a refund which as of 24th February 2025 I am still awaiting.

Fantastic model with fantastic service

Enough has been said about the attention to detail and running performance of the model, but the changes made in this second run to fix the few issues with the first batch have been extremely helpful.

The fiasco with the incorrect lighting PCB being fitted to the models from the factory would have had marks taken off it, but Accurascale's support services and the free returns to allow it to be fix and shipped back in a state that is now close enough to perfect more than make up for it.

The whole package makes me more than happy enough to get future models from them.

Deltic

This is a great model. Improvements have been made on the first batch so there was no broken chains when opening the box. Unlike my purchase in the first run I opted to buy a sound fitted version. ( I upgrade my first dcc ready deltic to sound after purchase). I am not sure what the issue is but the sound is not working on my new model. Hopefully this will be soon resolved with Accurascale after sales team.

Accurascale 55020 Sound Model

Was apprehensive to get one of these as 1st batch reviews were mixed. But took the plunge and have to say it is so magnificent from the big box arriving on the doorstep to seeing the Locomotive box and all the booklet. The model is pure brilliant’s and the sound totally awesome. Runs a dream even on my Hornby points.
Thank you Accurascale. Now have 3 of them. Can’t wait for the 60 and 50

Nimbus, Another great loco!

Runs perfectly, sounds great, looks even better! My 6th accura deltic, just 16 more to collect.
Very fast delivery, no damage or loose parts, other manufacturers could learn a lot from Accurascale.
