Freightliner were the second operating company to enter the class 66 game with the first of their locomotives arriving in 1999. Nicknamed 'freds' - a portmanteau of Freightliner and Shed, 66507 represents the standard freightliner class 66 of the early noughties.

Our Class 66 model is based on the award winning ‘accura-standard’ platform, with all-wheel powered six-axle bogies, a powerful twin flywheel fitted motor and market leading electronics package.

Freightliner 66507

Another fantastic model from Accurascale that addresses niggles with the Hattons class 66 plus handles set track express points and slightly uneven trackwork better than the Accurascale class 37 and Deltic with no derailing. Well assembled with an unblemished livery application. One grill was loose in the box, though easily reattached. Smooth running right down to a crawl and an impressive sound project.

Another winner

You people are at another level, these class 66's are stunning, your locos and rolling stock are poles apart from other mainstream manufactures, eagerly awaiting the sixties, keep up the good work

Almost brilliant

The model itself is nothing short of outstanding, the detail, decoration are second to none. Well done Accurascale for producing such a model at that price point. The only slight niggle is the sound. It could do with a bit more bass rumble and a little less of the annoying resonance/vibration that is present.

Five Star Fred!

Accurascale's Freightliner '66' is so good I bought it twice! Being at the very end of my modelling time period I'd only intended to get one, but I was so pleased with my first that I couldn't resist another when they came back into stock - really impressed with the sound and controllability, as well as the quality, hauling capability and sharply-printed branding on the sides. Some renumbering and weathering fun awaits!

Freightliner 66

I'm not into modern image but the 66 diesels have always impressed me in Oxfordshire and Cornwall. Normally I wouldn't have bothered but because it's Accurascale I have now got 3. Fantastic model of such an impressive locomotive. Well done Accurascale Team!

The Original Freightliner Green is without doubt my favourite Class 66 livery. So much so that I have extended the era of my layout to accommodate this loco.

What a superb model Accurascale have made. The Hattons shed had lots of potential, and Accurascale have finished it off beautifully. 😍😍😍 Full thrash please drive!
