Description
Once again another fantastic model from Accurascale, this time the TransPennine Express MK5 coaches, which look superb. What else to run them with other than a TPE & DRS Livery Class 68s from Dapol - prototypical stock formations. Note - I haven’t fitted the destination screens to the front/coach sides yet. Also note that most of the clips it’s running as a 4 car formation due to coach C derailing on one corner, every time, any speed! Which was very annoying. I’ll have to try and work out what the problem is. The other thing is that the DT white lights Flicker a lot when trailing so you can’t see the tail lights that well as they’re not too bright either. Overall though it’s a fantastic model.

Also seen is the MPV which got a rare run around the layout.

Enjoy!
