• Pannier

      So lads, I recently got an Accurapannier! Lovely loco and a must have for any western modelers. Hopefully yous have some, but just saying. Its a MASSIVE step up from Bachmann.

      • I got both a 57XX and an 8750 Pannier Tank. Both are like yours, with the early British Railways crest. The 57XX is plain black with red number plates.

          @StMichaelsRd Cool, I almost went for the plain black but when I went to check it was out of stock 😅

          • @great_western_godsy such a shame. Glad I ordered them at the same time otherwise I’d be in the same boat, or worse. The only thing I don’t like is the coal load. They should’ve used a smaller weight in the bunker so coal could be added on top.

          • @StMichaelsRd Same problem, I think they went overboard with the coal, so when I eventually go to add some real coal, it looks like its overfilled. I don’t mind it much, but it still looks unrealistic.
