Mini update & Running session. (Accurascale Bite Back!)

- Even though the last video only came out recently, there’s been quite a lot of things going on at Colwich.
This one’s all about Accurascale class 37s (& a bit of Bachmann class 20)
37608 & 409 have received some front end detailing & some minor repairs (in the case of Large Logo 409 Lord Hinton)
Some of the wonderful Accurascale Magnetic Dellner couplings have been fitted to Europhoenix 37608 “Andromeda” for that touch of realism.
I’m not sure wether the real loco ever moved TPE Mk5 stock, but on the layout she has now! Rule one applies ⚠️
Take nothing away from the recent Cavalex 56 which is amazing in all departments, I still have a strong liking for the Accurascale 37 & I think the looks & sounds are Bob on!
I hope you agree.
The recent purchase of another Bachmann class 20 has sparked me into doing a full renumber, something I’ve never done before. With the help of modellers on FB & Instagram I’ve taken the plunge & safely removed the factory fitted decals/graphics, so now I’m awaiting the delivery of some Railtech transfers so 20306 can become compass liveried version to match with my other Bachmann 20 for nuclear flask duties☢️
Thanks for watching
Stay safe & see you on the next one

Nice video that mate. I’d like one of those phoenix jobs and that 37409 as well. They’re so nice!
Yeah, its not everyone’s cup of tea, but I love it.
I nearly got one of the Bachmann models, they looks a decent model too I just missed out on one when they were released.
If I remember Richard at New Junction had one…
Definite confirmation, Europhoenix liveried 37510 and (either) 600 or 610 top and tailed a five car 397 TPE unit southbound through Leyland on November 4 2023, I managed to capture it.
I must say those 37s and the new couplers look top drawer. One of my favourite model railway views is the corner on your layout through the countryside.
Excellent stuff 👍👍👍
YES! I knew somebody would know wether or not that a Europhoenix 37 actually worked this type of train!
Thankyou.
It’s not vital that’s it was a real life train, but I’ve had a thought of the pairing the TPE & 37 for a while….
One day hopefully I will get the other end of the scene finished, but I’ve been saying that for what seems years.
Cheers John b🥸
@@colwichjunction3366 yes, run your favourite hard earned locos, I never worry too much about being ‘correct’👍👍👍👍
@Shelfandtabletoplayouts00gauge - no I’m never too fussed as I say rule one applies, but it’s nice to know it’s a possibility that something similar actually ran👍
The old Europhoenix is my favorite 37 look and you mixed it with one of my favorite UK liveries... the TPE. Very nice! Great session and nice update... the layout continues to stun!
Excellent modelling and photography.
Thanks although I’ve definitely run out of places that my iPhone will fit for new shots! 😁
Cheers John b 🥸
Lovely update and cracking running John, thanks for sharing, cheers Darrell
Thanks Darrell, it’s nice to run the Accurascale 37s again after all the fuss about the Cavalex release, although it was all deserved…both cracking locos.
I’ve seen lots of people who’ve had problems with their 37s, I must have been lucky all the ones I have have been pretty good.
Big question is do I invest in a Cavalex 60?????
Cheers John b 😎
@@colwichjunction3366 funnily enough I’ve had both my Accurascale 37’s out running, definitely get yourself a Cavalex 60 I’ll be getting the DC Rail 60 but won’t be getting rid of my Hornby ones 👍
Yes I need to watch your video now I’m back home👍
