Class 55 'Deltic' - BR Blue - 55004 - Queen's Own Highlander

Much requested is our first Haymarket-allocated TOPS blue Deltic, represented here by 55004 in 1977 condition, just after having its headcode box plated over. Notably this was one of just four members of the fleet to feature unpainted front windscreen frames during the mid to late 1970s.

Another great Deltic model from Accurascale. The unpainted windscreen surrounds accurately replicate 55004’s appearance. The shape of the 55’s is well replicated. Easy to fit bufferbeam piping tops off the general high level of detailing. The models have received a good finish & all is securely packaged in impressive boxes. Roll on batch 3 !

Another great Deltic

What a great model, consistent quality and great paint job. Deltic No4 had a great escape from The Plant and this model is a fitting testament to great survivor.

Yet another gem from the Accurascale stables... this time in the form of 55004.

This beast has graced my layout for the last fortnight and has run faultlessly proving once again that quality and meticulous care can result in a model well worth the long wait for batch two.

I was so impressed by the standards I even reached out to enhance my fleet with the addition of 55020 into the loco pool.

The paintwork, overall detail items and sprung buffers have resulted in a loco well worth the wait.

Fantastic

WOW, even the lights in the dashboard clocks light up, only thing I've noticed is the rear lights are white going forward which they wouldn't be but mine is only DC so probably the DCC version doesn't and makes tea and buiscets for you

Blue deltic!

When I had the change to pick this up I had to. I realised I hadn't got a blue one so it fitted perfectly between my other models! Weight and detail give this model a real presence
