Class 55 'Deltic' - BR Blue w/Silver - 55013 - The Black Watch

Complementing 55022 from the first run is York’s 55013 in its similar special livery with silver fuel tanks, grey roof, red bufferbeams and white-painted extras, which it retained until its withdrawal in October 1981. It was repainted for the 1980 Rainhill Event, but was replaced on the bill by Tulyar.

Rainhill guest that never was

No13 looks great in this well applied livery. There isn't much more to say that hasn't been said already. Another splendid rendition of a Blue Deltic. Maybe a future version of Deltic No5 in Royal Mail celebration livery can follow Black Watch.

Another excellent model

Well for a self-confessed non-deltic fan I seem to have three of these locos now! So they must be doing something right😃
I haven't run a caliper over it but it looks good and runs superbly (on dc). Only things I plan to do are to fit pipes to one end and as before add some Replica Railways grey spots to the headcode marker lights. This model is less white than the first batch, but the slightly darker colour sets the model off to a tee.
I should add that the e-mail that the model was on its way came whilst the website still said stock incoming, so no complaints there and the packing was again with the card "shoe box" ends which are better than bubble wrap and 100% recyclable.
Many to thanks to all at A/S.

A superlative model

This is I think the best model loco I have ever owned, it doesn't disappoint in any respect. The level of detail is exceptional and it is exactly as I remember the engine 40 plus years ago when I saw it in BR service (except in 1/76 scale) The etched name plates are of the highest quality and when applied raise the cosmetic appearance of the loco still further. My example was missing a windscreen wiper on arrival (lt was loose in the box and soon re-affixed with a little PVA) which was my only issue. Delivery was prompt and the whole retail experience excellent.

Why can't all models be like this?

Quite simply, the best loco I own - and I have a few. The detail is excellent, it's beautifully put together, it weighs a ton, and runs silently and incredibly smoothly. If you want a 55, look no further.

Superb Model

Although I would not normally have contemplated buying a Deltic decorated so garishly (Silver Tank and Grey Roof) this model is so good that I had to have one. It looks good and runs superbly well although, as I am analogue only, I do not really get the best from the loco that DCC would give.

Wow

Having missed the first run, I was glad when the second batch was announced. I'm glad to have finally got a deltic in the fleet, fantastic detailing, great running characteristics. Possibly my favourite loco in my collection now
