Classe 66-GBRF-66724-Sonorisation DCC

This is my fourth Accurascale class 66, and its of the same excellent quality, as the others, the attention to detail, the smooth running, and slow running over pointwork is faultless. Fighting the temptation for another now…………..

Another excellent class 66 model

Just received my 66, as usual excellent packaging.
The Loco looks very good indeed wonderful detail, first thing I did was to fit the crew, the body comes off quite easily although a bit fiddly getting to the cab I was scared of breaking something. The loco runs very smooth and the sounds are very good, the only downside is that the lights are a bit random, they come on ok but as soon asthe loco set off they go off, then they will come on again after a while then when I touch the throttle to slow down at the station they go off, then when the loco stops they come back on, that might need to be looked at , overall very pleased with the loco.

Mesmerising!
I can’t see a single thing to moan about, complain about or criticise and if the ‘professional’ ( ‘It makes e feel good!’ ‘nitpickers want, need, have or find something to massage their egos then… ’Frankly my Dear I don’t give a damn!’

This will look and sound great at the front of my Liner trains.

Lovely model; very nicely detailed as per the previous run as well. Nice and smooth runner plus clear sounds.
(DPD weren’t the best)

Great detail, great sound and overall superb

Finally a modern basic GBRf livery! Fantastic detail, the cab is especially impressive, with some solid heft and durability, not feeling like anything's going to break off too soon.

So happy with this order.
Well worth the wait. Really detailed and can't wait to run on my layout.

My new Accurascale Class 66 has just arrived, and I have to say — this model is an absolute triumph. From the moment you lift it out of the box, you can tell Accurascale have pushed the boundaries yet again.

🔍 Detail & Finish
The level of fidelity on this model is outstanding. Every grill, bolt, pipe and access panel is sharply defined, and the overall finish is crisp and beautifully applied. The livery is pin-sharp, with no fuzzy edges or overspray — exactly what you’d expect from a premium model, and Accurascale absolutely deliver.

🎨 Cab Detailing
The cab interior is one of the highlights. With a fitted driver and second man added, lights on, it really brings the locomotive to life. There’s something special about seeing a crewed cab rolling across the layout — it adds that extra touch of realism.

🔊 Sound & Performance
On the track, the Class 66 is silky smooth. Slow-speed control is superb right out of the box, and once you notch up the power, it glides along with real presence.
The factory-fitted sound is rich, weighty, and incredibly immersive. The engine notes, horn, fan sequences and flange squeal all blend to give a genuinely authentic driving experience. Perfect for those late-evening "just one more lap" running sessions!

⚙️ Build Quality
Weighty, solid and confidence-inspiring — it feels like a model built to last. Couplings, lighting and body fit are all excellent, and the model has that satisfying premium feel Accurascale have become known for.

🏁 Final Thoughts
The Accurascale Class 66 isn’t just good… it’s class-leading. Whether you’re a diesel fan, a GBRf follower, or simply someone who appreciates first-rate modelling, this is a locomotive that deserves a spot on your layout.

A superb blend of detail, performance, and realism — highly recommended from The Novice Railway Modeller.
